Agreements of the EU

European Union Trade Agreements.

The EU is the largest global trade player: 20% of global trade.

China  is the second-largest trading partners of the EU after the U.S..

The main objectives of the EU Free Trade Agreements are:

  1. To open new international markets for products and services;
  2. To increase the Foreign direct investment (FDI) flows;
  3. To make the international trade cheaper (eliminating customs duties);
  4. To make the external trade faster;
  5. To make the policy environment more predictable.

Each Free Trade Agreement negotiated by the EU is adapted to the situation of each nation.

Normally:

“The more ambitious the Free Trade Agreement is, more benefits are to be gained from the agreement.”

The EU has granted duty-free access for most of the imports from the developing countries (Generalized system of preferences).

The EU Free Trade Agreements: Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Tunisia, Palestine, EFTA, South Korea, ASEAN, GGC, Central America, Andean Community, MERCOSUR, Chile, Mexico, Turkey, India, China, Lebanon, Algeria, CARIFORUM, Ivory Coast, and Georgia.
