EU Trade Commissioner: Regulatory Mechanism Will Be The Most Difficult Issue In TTIP.

"P > a href=" http://www.91se91.com/news/index_c.asp "> /a > /a > Degut (Karel De Gucht) and American trade representative Fu LMAN (Michael Froman) held a cross the Atlantic trade and investment partnership agreement (Transatlantic Trade) on 17 and 18 February. Although good progress has been made in the negotiations, if both sides want to find a consensus solution for the unresolved issues, the negotiations must step up and never ignore the overall goal of creating opportunities for enterprises and improving employment. < /p >
< p > Europe and the United States have already exchanged the < a href= "http://www.91se91.com/news/index_c.asp" > tariff < /a > reduction list. For this reason, Degut believes that it is the key to success of any agreement to maximize the balance of differences so as to ensure balance. In addition, he is concerned about the issue of services and public procurement, and expects to set up innovative rules to make it an example of future trade agreements. < /p >
< p > regulatory issues are the most difficult part of TTIP. The EU does not intend to start negotiations on standards such as consumer protection, environment, data protection, or food. However, the regulatory bodies of the two sides can still cooperate closely and cooperate with each other to make their safety standards approximate, avoid duplex testing and double tests, save enterprise costs, and avoid trade barriers in the future. < /p >
< p > Fu LMAN has made it clear that, while eliminating the unnecessary "a href=" http://www.91se91.com/news/index_c.asp "trade regulation /a" obstacles, we must also maintain appropriate health, safety and environmental protection. He hopes to make substantial progress in the coming months, and the determination and political will of the two sides to reach agreement are still strong. Negotiations will continue and the next round of negotiations is expected to be held in Brussels in March 10th. < /p >
< p > at present, TTIP is facing increasing hostility. European Union ministers and business leaders said on 28 th that TTIP was under the influence of anti globalization and populist groups against transnational enterprises, and was in danger of derailment. < /p >
Shi Tabai, Minister of European affairs and foreign trade of Finland (P Alexander), participated in the conference in Athens. He told her European Union partners and business leaders that they are now working hard to deal with the anti European, anti American, anti free trade, anti globalization and anti transnational enterprises, and think that it is a tough battle to persuade them to agree that TTIP is a good trade agreement. < /p >
Since the euro zone is barely out of the 2 year economic downturn, European governments believe that a trade agreement with the United States is the best way to create employment opportunities, which can generate an additional US $100 billion economic output each year. The United States and Europe have nearly $3 billion in trade in goods and services every day. Through deepening economic relations, trade agreements will form a market of 800 million people and enterprises can operate freely. < /p >
However, the agreement must be approved by the European Parliament and the US Congress. Therefore, public support is very important. But European consumers and environmental organizations believe that trade agreements enable enterprises to operate freely in Europe and the United States, which may avoid the EU's safety and environmental standards. P However, Degut believes that even if the two sides sign trade agreements, the EU's stringent GM food laws and regulations will not change. < /p >
