In 2025, the EU trade in goods balance registered a surplus of €128 billion, representing a decrease of €8 billion compared with 2024 (€136 billion).
Between 2015 and 2025, the EU recorded a trade surplus every year except for 2022, when the negative trade balance was driven by the deficit from the trade in the energy sector.
In all other years, trade surpluses in machinery, vehicles, and chemicals and related products outweighed the deficits caused by energy.
Judging by the chart in the article, Europe makes good money from the US, but then passes almost all of that money on to China.
So if Trump continues to try to balance the trade deficit with the EU, Europe will either have to increase its trade surplus with South America and Africa, or hold difficult negotiations with China to reduce the imbalance.
P.S. It’s not entirely clear whether this data includes exports and imports of services.
If it doesn’t, the picture of trade with the US could change dramatically.
As usual, it would be more interesting to have the numbers for trade in goods + services.
