3. Committee draft → Tabled for plenary Draft report (INTA) → Report A10-0070/2026

   ▸ AIAI: What changed Written by AI from the official text — check the source

   The regulation now applies until 31 December 2028 instead of 18 months after entry into force, with retroactive effect from 1 August 2025. Delegated acts are limited to amending the Annex, with a new condition on US tariffs exceeding 15%, and the delegation period ends on 31 December 2028. Adds a new suspension condition for human rights breaches and security threats, and requires origin verification to prevent circumvention. Replaces the single evaluation with a provisional report and a comprehensive report by 30 June 2028, including reporting obligations. The other changes are formal: a budgetary assessment is added to the explanatory statement.
