US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said on Monday that a 3 billion euro (about $3.4 billion) loan from the European Investment Bank to Airbus could put the US-EU trade truce at risk. The EIB announced the loan in June to support research and development. Greer said in a statement that his office had received no details about the financing and urged the EU to resolve the matter as soon as possible. According to The Epoch Times, Greer also said the situation adds substantial uncertainty to transatlantic aerospace trade, and that the 2021 Large Civil Aircraft agreement had ended an earlier tariff dispute over government support in the sector.
