The office of British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has stated that the United Kingdom remains committed to active discussions for a technological cooperation agreement with the United States, valued at $40 billion. Although the agreement has been suspended due to U.S. allegations regarding trade barriers imposed by the UK, Downing Street insists that it is not dead. The spokesperson for the British government emphasized the commitment to resume the partnership as soon as possible. At the same time, relations between the U.S. and the European Union are deteriorating, with threats from the Trump administration against European technology companies accused of discriminatory practices. The U.S. Trade Representative's office has warned that it will take action against these companies if the EU does not abandon regulations deemed restrictive. The European Commission's response was that the rules apply fairly to all companies, emphasizing the EU's commitment to regulate the technology sector fairly.
