European central bankers warned that rising U.S. tensions and unilateral market interventions—such as yen-supporting actions, longer-dated Treasury buybacks, and the lack of advance notice—could destabilize global markets and test established cooperation. While U.S. Fed officials assure commitment to existing agreements, EU officials fear sudden policy shifts and emphasize the need for clear communication to preserve market stability.
