BRUSSELS – On Sunday night, US President Donald Trump said he would pause his plan to place 50 per cent tariffs on the European Union after a “very nice call” with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. For her part, von der Leyen described the conversation as a “good call”, adding that the EU and US shared “the world’s most consequential and close trade relationship”. On the surface, the two sides are signalling that they are ready to work together on a new trade deal.

They may not have roamed the world like Tintin, but Quick and Flupke, the incorrigible Brussels street urchins conjured by Hergé in 1930, are getting their moment in the spotlight.

We are opening a new chapter in our unique relationship,” von der Leyen replied.

In his hastily arranged trade deal announcement, where he patched in by phone to the Oval Office for a cross-Atlantic press conference broadcast live, he made a point of calling Trump “Donald” several times. But for all the hype surrounding the UK-US trade deal, it is another global power-broker who really counts.
