Euro-American relations

Euro-American relations are the bilateral relations between the European Union (EU) and the United States of America (USA).

Euro-American relations are primarily concerned with trade policy. The EU is, inter alia, a fully unified trade bloc and this, together with competition policy, are the primary matters of substance currently between the EU (as an organisation) and the USA. The EU also has an embryo common European Union foreign policy which some people would like to see subsume and replace or supplement the EU member states individual foreign policies.

Currently the EUs role in foreign policy is limited (except in the aforementioned trade and competition matters) to seeking agreement amongst the individual EU member states foreign policies. The EU member states currently, and look set to continue to have, primacy over their individual foreign policies irrespective of what other EU member states or the EU itself may desire.
