The delegation, led by INTA Chair, Mr Bernd Lange, and the Standing Rapporteur, Mrs Inmaculada Rodríguez-Piñero Fernández (S&D, ES), will travel to Chile to meet a number of key government figures including VM Foreign Affairs and Ministers in charge of economy, agriculture, mining, environment, labour and gender. They will also have exchanges with Chilean legislators, civil society organisations, representatives of the industry and indigenous people.

EU-Japan Economic Partnership Agreement

12-12-2018 - 17:54

The European Parliament gave its consent to the EU-Japan Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA) creating the world's largest bilateral free trade area. The EU-Japan brings two of the world's largest economies closer by opening up markets and setting joint rules for economic operators. The endorsement by Parliament, paving the way for its entry into force on 1 February 2019, sends out a strong signal in support of open, rules-based trade in times of protectionist threats to the global economy.

(Ábhar léitheoireachta)

The deal develops further the EU's approach to trade agreements by including innovative elements such as provisions on corporate governance, a chapter on facilitating trade for SME and a joint commitment to the Paris agreement to combat climate change.

INTA Members voted on key legislative trade files

12-12-2018 - 17:54

The Screening of FDI into the EU (Rapporteur: F. PROUST) is a priority file included in the Joint Declaration and it lays the grounds at EU level to preserve the EU's strategic interests. It is closely linked to the Future of Europe: With the new legislation the EU will remain open to foreign investment in times of protectionism.

(Ábhar léitheoireachta)

At the same time, the new framework on the screening of FDI will allow for more transparency, better coordination and cooperation in case of FDis threatening security or public order.

The agreement on the Horizontal Safeguard Regulation (Rapporteur: C. FJELLNER) comes ahead of the EP votes on several major trade agreements (Japan, Singapore and Vietnam). The Regulation provides a safety net for European producers in case there are sudden increases in imports that cause, or risk causing, serious injury to an industry.

INTA Members also voted on extending preferential trade tariffs to Western Sahara.

MEPs discussed the future of the World Trade Organisation at its seat in Geneva

WTO: the way forward - title of the Parliamentary Conference on the WTO

A delegation of five MEPs, mostly of the trade committee, joined other parliamentarians in dialogue with WTO negotiators and officials on future tasks and opportunities facing the body. At the Parliamentary Conference on the WTO, an annual gathering of deputies co-organised by the European Parliament, the topics discussed included emerging trade wars, the return to unilateral measures, and the looming paralysis of the Appellate Body, the dispute settlement instrument of WTO.

Considerations of reports on Trade and Investment Agreements with Vietnam

06-12-2018 - 17:48

The INTA Committee is delivering on its promise to prepare the Parliament for a vote on EU Vietnam trade and investment agreements, which have been concluded a few weeks ago. On 3 December draft reports on the Free Trade Agreement (FTA) and Investment Protection Agreement (IPA) were presented. It was an opportunity to learn, how different political groups prepare, for giving or not a consent of the Parliament to these important agreements.

(Ábhar léitheoireachta)

The Parliament will have a few months to scrutinize the agreements and prepare for a vote, which should take place still before the upcoming European elections.

Vietnam is a nation of over 90 million people with one of the fastest growing economies in the world and with a very young population. The EU exports to Vietnam are dominated by high tech products including electrical machinery and equipment, aircraft, vehicles, and pharmaceutical products. Vietnam's key export items to the EU include telephone sets, electronic products, footwear, textiles and clothing, coffee, rice, seafood, and furniture.
