The European Union has had a growing trade balance with the United States since the turn of the millennium. While in 1999, the EU recorded a monthly trade balance with the U.S. as low as 200 million euros a month, the monthly trade balance in the most recent period recorded was over 12 billion euros. Both exports and imports have increased over this period, with a particularly notable uptick following the coronavirus pandemic.
