European Union leaders discussed new proposals from the United States on a trade deal at a summit in Brussels on Thursday, with Commission President Ursula von der Leyen not ruling out tariff talks could fail and saying "all options remain on the table".

BRUSSELS (Reuters) -European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said on Thursday the EU had received the "latest U.S. document" for further negotiations on tariffs but did not reveal details of Washington's demands. "All options remain on the table," she told reporters following a EU summit in Brussels.

E.U. chief Ursula von der Leyen said the bloc was ready for a trade deal with Washington, but hinted at preparations for countermeasures if a July 9 deadline was not reached.
