President Donald Trump is willing to reopen negotiations with the European Union over the stalled Trans-Atlantic Trade and Investment Partnership agreement, which stalled following his election.
The European Union urged the United States to revive trade talks rather than escalate a dispute over tariffs on metals and cars.
