- German chemicals association VCI said on Monday it was unclear what chemicals would be exempt from the EU's trade deal with the United States.

"We have taken note of the exemption for 'certain chemicals.' However, we don't yet know exactly which ones are meant," said a VCI spokesperson.

The U.S. and EU will have zero-for-zero tariffs on certain chemicals, according to a framework trade deal agreed on Sunday.
