The European Union wants "more clarity" from the United States on its priorities in ongoing trade talks aimed at reducing Donald Trump's tariffs, the bloc's economy and trade chief said Wednesday.

"This engagement obviously requires clarity from both sides," European Commission Executive Vice President for economic and financial affairs Valdis Dombrovskis said at an event in Washington. "Currently, indeed, one would wish for more clarity on expectations from (the) US side."
