EU-U.S. Trade Agreement
LNG Allies to President Trump and President von der Leyen: The Historic U.S.-EU Trade Agreement
July 31, 2025
The $750 billion U.S.-EU energy commitment at Turnberry drew immediate criticism from analysts who called the numbers unrealistic. LNG Allies disagreed—and said so directly to both presidents. The agreement is far more than a commodity trade deal. It encompasses nuclear fuel and technology, energy infrastructure services, CCUS systems, advanced reactor designs, and the full spectrum of hydrocarbon technologies. When those elements are properly accounted for, the targets become not only achievable but conservative. More importantly, the agreement provides the demand certainty necessary to finance the next wave of USLNG export capacity—and transforms a transactional trade relationship into a durable strategic energy alliance.
