If there is no progress in the negotiations, a second package of measures will follow, which will be introduced on May 15. This is reported by TASS with reference to the European Commission.

The day before, EU trade ministers discussed in Brussels retaliatory measures against the United States for the imposition of trade duties, including 20 percent on goods from the European Union.
