Rescue teams from the State Emergency Service of Ukraine rescued a cat which had been fighting for its life for 2 weeks under the rubbles of a building that target by Russian bombs in the city of Kharkiv. “The search and rescue teams have rescued the cat from the wreckage of the building that collapsed 2 weeks ago. Our teams that participated in the debris removal work of the 5-storey building in the Industrialnyi district of Kharkiv, noticed a very scared and dirty cat behind a seat on the 4th floor of the building. Our teams handed over the cat to a person living in the building. It is now in a safe place and waiting for its owners with a full stomach,” Emergency Service said in their statement.
EU Trade Commissioner Maros Sefcovic warned that a proposed 30% US tariff on European goods would effectively amount to a trade ban, severely disrupting transatlantic supply chains.
Speaking ahead of the EU Foreign Affairs Council in Brussels, Sefcovic expressed disappointment over a letter from US President Donald Trump that halted expected trade progress. “We were close to an agreement,” he said, but now “must prepare for all outcomes.”
The EU has delayed retaliatory measures on $72 billion worth of US goods until August 1, hoping for a negotiated resolution. Sefcovic emphasized that “no one wants a trade war,” while France urged faster preparation for countermeasures and Hungary blamed the EU Commission’s weak response to US pressure.
Danish and Lithuanian ministers echoed calls to avoid escalation but emphasized EU readiness to defend its interests.
