Poland is threatening to block a part of the EU’s trade deal with Canada because of its concerns over a planned mechanism for resolving disputes between governments and multinational companies.
Accounting for 23 percent of GDP worldwide, the United States has dominated the global economy for over 70 years. However, the US attitude towards trade policy has changed significantly since the new administration took office. President Donald Trump has removed the United States from the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), slowed the progress of the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP), and called into question the benefits of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).
With these notable changes in policies, the United States is no longer situated at the forefront of international trade, and in its absence the European Union has stepped in.
The chlorinated chicken, together with the hormone-treated cow and investor state dispute settlement system, was responsible for killing off an EU-US trade deal, known as TTIP, in the court of public opinion. Not content with befouling EU-US trade talks, the chickens have re-emerged as obstacles in the way of the UK brokering a landmark post-Brexit pact with Washington.
Over the past four years, the United States and the European Union (EU) have been negotiating the Trans-Atlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP or T-TIP) free trade agreement , which intends to unlock market access oppertunities for buisness on both sides of the Atlantic through the elimination of trade and investment barriers as well as enhanced regulatory coherence. Here Dr. Sehng Lu, assistant professor at the Department of fashion and Apparel Studies at the University of Delaware, looks at what the pact might mean for the US and EU textil and apparel industries.
What is happening in our only directly-elected EU institution is shocking. Here’s why.
Yannick Jadot MEP, INTA committee vice-chair, European Parliament
TTIP has been sacrificed to save the Comprehensive Economic & Trade Agreement (CETA) and the Trade in Services Agreement (TISA) and Brexit won’t spare us from them
An international trade deal being negotiated in secret is a “turbo-charged privatisation pact” that poses a threat to democratic sovereignty and “the very concept of public services”, campaigners have warned.
Obama believes passing TTIP would be a major win for his administration as he seeks to define his presidential legacy – but both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump oppose the deal
