Quote of day ‘the times, they are a-changing.’ @Trade_EU
From cars to AI chips, critical minerals and pharma - today's 🇪🇺🇺🇸 trade framework locks in a 15% tariff cap, key exemptions, and a platform for strategic cooperation.
A serious deal restoring confidence. Stability today. Growth tomorrow.
My remarks 👉 https://t.co/cpfvGv6Ch5.
From zero to hero and fully pressure-tested: 🇨🇾 Cyprus’ extinguishers 🧯 are the sleeper hit of #CETA.
Export success isn't always flashy, but it is powerful.

#Tradeonthemove@Trade_EU
The @DeptEnterprise , in conjunction with @Trade_EU and the @EU_Commission, held a #MarketAccessDay in Dublin on the 9 April 2025.
#MarketAccessDay featured journalist and broadcaster Sarah Carey as event MC. A keynote speech by the EU’s Chief Trade Enforcement Officer, Denis Rodennet, focused on the implementation and enforcement of EU trade policy and the benefits to Irish businesses. This event, taking place at a time of unprecedented change in the global trade landscape, provided an opportunity for businesses, and particularly exporters, to engage with the EU Commission directly. It provided key information on the tools and supports available to businesses.
Thank you to everyone attended and to those that delivered presentations and took part in the panel discussions on the day.
