European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is set to meet with former U.S. President Donald Trump in Scotland, aiming to de-escalate tensions and prevent a potential transatlantic trade war. Trump, known for his protectionist trade policies during his presidency, will be the focus of von der Leyen's diplomatic efforts. Trump himself assessed the chances of success as "50/50," highlighting the uncertainty surrounding the outcome of the meeting. The discussions are expected to cover a range of trade-related issues, including tariffs, regulations, and market access. The EU is keen to maintain stable trade relations with the U.S., a crucial economic partner.
