EU, U.S. Agree To End Trade Feud Over Subsidies To Aircraft Manufacturers
ResumeAs the G7 summit meets in Brussels, world leaders have agreed to put a 17-year trade feud over subsidies to aircraft manufacturers behind them, suspending almost $12 billion of tariffs.

Host Robin Young speaks with Here & Now's transportation analyst Seth Kaplan about the agreement.
