3 Trade as a Political Priority Commission General Objective 6: A balanced and progressive trade policy to harness globalisation
4 A comparison with the US Region US FTAs EU FTAs North America Canada, Mexico Canada, Mexico Central America CAFTA-DR, Panama CAAA, CARIFORUM South America Chile, Peru, Colombia Chile, Peru, Colombia, Ecuador Asia South Korea, Singapore South Korea, Singapore, Vietnam Middle East and North Morocco, Israel, Palestine, Tunisia, Morocco, Israel, Oman, Bahrein Africa Lebanon, Jordan Sub-Saharan Africa 5 EPAs with 13 States Pacific Australia EPA Fiji, PNG Europe Norway, Switzerland, Eastern European and Balkan countries Total 14 FTAs 37 FTAs
5 The EU and Free Trade Agreements: the latest Canada (CETA): provisional application Mexico (modernisation): agreement in principle ANDEAN: provisional application Mercosur: advanced stage of negotiations Ukraine: provisional application (part of association agreement) SADC: in force (Economic Partnership Agreement) Japan: negotiations concluded India, Indonesia, Malaysia: under negotiations Singapore & Vietnam: negotiations concluded, not yet in force Australia & New Zealand: under negotiations
6 Japan The text of the agreement was concluded on 8 December On 17 July 2018, the EU and Japan signed the Economic Partnership Agreement at the EU-Japan summit in Tokyo. The Commission aims for the entry into force of the agreement before the end of its mandate in 2019.
7 Vietnam The European Commission adopted the EU-Vietnam trade and investment agreements (the FTA and a separate Investment Protection Agreement (IPA) on 17 th October 2018 The texts are currently being translated into EU languages and Vietnamese and are expected to be ready in November The FTA and IPA will then be approved by the Commission and submitted as a package to the Council before the end of The Council and Parliament will discuss the text, which means that adoption and entry into force of the FTA may have to wait until autumn The IPA will take longer due to the requirement for Member State ratification.
8 Singapore On 18 April 2018, the Commission presented to the Council the EU- Singapore Trade Agreement and the EU-Singapore Investment Protection Agreement (IPA). The Council adopted and signed the agreements on 19 October The Parliament has to ratify the agreements and then the Council will proceed with the conclusion of the agreement. The FTA requires only the EU adoption procedure to enter into force. The EU-Singapore Investment Protection Agreement must be ratified by both the EU and by Member States. The Commission would like the Trade Agreement to come into effect before the end of its mandate in 2019.
9 Mexico The EU and Mexico reached an agreement in principle on 21 April The new agreement will replace a previous agreement between the EU and Mexico from The EU and Mexico fixed the technical details in October It is difficult that EU adoption could be completed before the EU Parliament s elections in May 2019.
10 Chile EU-Chile relations are currently governed by the 2002 EU-Chile Association Agreement (AA) which covers political dialogue, cooperation as well as a comprehensive free trade agreement (FTA). The first round of negotiations to modernise the AA took place on 16 November 2017 The third negotiation round took place in Brussels at the end of May 2018 On June 2018, the EU published new texts to be discussed with Chile.
11 Mercosur Although progress on several chapters was made during the meetings negotiators held in November and December 2017, the EU and Mercosur failed to conclude a political agreement at the end of 2017 as originally expected. Three negotiating rounds in February-March, June and July 2018 have not allowed negotiators to make enough progress. At the most recent negotiating round held in Montevideo, Uruguay, at mid-september 2018, only limited progress was achieved. Impact of the Presidential election in Brazil?
