TTC: main topics of the kick-off meeting

The Trade and Technology Council (TTC) kickoff on Wednesday will focus on four key topics, according to senior EU officials: investment controls (FDIs), export controls, artificial intelligence and semiconductors. In these areas, the potential for EU-US cooperation is particularly high, they said. However, they said, the basic idea of the TTC is an open platform with a flexible work program. For example, the issue of digital currencies has not yet been set within the ten working groups, but this could change in the future.
