A new trade agreement between the United States and the European Union, announced by President Trump, promises massive European purchases of American military equipment and energy—reportedly worth hundreds of billions of dollars. While Trump touts the deal as a historic win for US industry, European defense stocks have fallen sharply, reflecting concerns that EU spending will shift toward American suppliers. The deal is being framed as a major political and economic victory for the US, with claims of $600 billion in military gear and $750 billion in energy purchases. However, some analysts question whether the actual impact will match the headline figures. The agreement is expected to reshape transatlantic trade and defense procurement priorities.
