EU fears Donald Trump rolling back Biden-era measures

EU officials are analyzing hundreds of executive orders and sanctions imposed by US President Joe Biden amid growing concern that Donald Trump will rescind them, potentially upending foreign relations and trade, Report informs via Financial Times.

Brussels is worried that Trump could seek to overturn his predecessor’s decisions simply because they were taken by Biden, without much consideration about the impact of such moves on European allies.

Senior European Commission officials have ordered a review of Biden’s orders — which range from sanctions against Russia to trade and cyber security — to work out which reversals could have the biggest impact on the bloc or undermine its own measures, according to three people briefed on the initiative.

The hurry before Trump’s inauguration on January 20 underscores the EU’s insecurity over the potential actions of the president-elect when he returns to the White House, following threats he has already made against close US allies.
