EU trade boss to visit US in April – POLITICO

BRUSSELS — The EU’s Commissioner for Trade Maroš Šefčovič will visit the United States in late April, Deputy Chief Spokesperson Olof Gill confirmed to POLITICO.

It’s unclear whether a new and controversial technology-related "dialogue" will be on the agenda. "We’re open to clarify misunderstandings with the U.S.," Commission Spokesperson for Technology Thomas Regnier said at the Commission’s daily press conference on Tuesday.

The EU has resisted U.S. pressure to tone down tech regulation and enforcement, which the Trump administration claims are technical trade barriers.
