European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is set to meet with President Donald Trump this weekend in Scotland to discuss trade.

LONDON—President Trump and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen are scheduled to meet Sunday during the U.S. president’s visit to Scotland, raising hopes that the U.S. and Europe are close to a trade deal that would avoid a trans-Atlantic trade war.

The EU is preparing countermeasures in case of a no-deal scenario. Talks of a potential deal have however also been heating up this week. Brussels is preparing for a no-deal scenario as uncertainty persists about if and when a trade agreement between the European Union and U.S. will materialize.
