Even if we do trade with the EU under Article XXIV, that only covers goods and not services.


If we just winged it, relying on the slowness of the WTO to enforce, then we are breaking a global trade agreement at a time when we are supposed to be making deals with all of these countries. Not a good look to be seen breaking deals while trying to broker new ones. Doesn't make you look very trustworthy...
I know it covers only goods. It's the goods that are the problem.
