EU trade chief says had productive talks with US camp

• Had productive talks with Lutnick, Greer in the last two days
• More work lies ahead on steel in trade talks with the US
• Will discuss aspect of critical, raw materials with US counterparts

As a reminder, the backdrop before this was a bit tense as the US has been pushing the EU to speed up in terms of implementing the supposed trade deal agreed between Trump and von der Leyen. So far, the EU has introduced a legislation back in August to lower tariffs against the US but is yet to be adopted by the European Parliament and Council.
