State of play of EU-Australia FTA talks Type de publicationEn bref Date 02-12-2020 Auteur BINDER Krisztina Domaine politique Commerce international Mot-clé accord commercial (UE) | accord de libre-échange | accès au marché | Australie | commerce international | négociation d'accord (UE) | négociation internationale | négociation tarifaire | petites et moyennes entreprises Résumé In May 2018, the Council authorised the Commission to negotiate a free trade agreement (FTA) with Australia. Negotiations were officially launched in June 2018. Between July 2018 and September 2020, eight negotiation rounds took place. The first chapter of the prospective EU-Australia FTA, concluded at the technical level, is on small and medium-sized enterprises. The ninth negotiation round started on 30 November 2020. En bref EN Multilateralism in international trade: Reforming the WTO Type de publicationBriefing Date 22-10-2018 Auteur HARTE RODERICK EDWARD NOEL Domaine politique Commerce international Mot-clé commerce international | négociation tarifaire | Organisation mondiale du commerce | politique commerciale commune | protectionnisme | relation commerciale | relation multilatérale | États-Unis Résumé Since its establishment in 1995, the World Trade Organization (WTO) has embodied the multilateral trading system. Despite successes in some areas, including the effective settlement of numerous trade disputes and the conclusion of new multilateral trade agreements, the WTO currently faces serious challenges to its legitimacy and its effective functioning. Of particular concern is the US blockage of new appointments to the WTO’s Appellate Body (AB), which fulfils a key role in the WTO dispute settlement system. This impasse could soon paralyse the practical enforcement of multilateral trade rules, which would undermine the rules-based system. In addition, certain countries’ contentious trade practices cannot be addressed under existing WTO rules, and rules on transparency are not fully complied with. The WTO has also had limited success in adding new issues to its trade agenda, and the 2001 Doha round was inconclusive. This has led many countries to pursue their own trade agreements outside the WTO’s multilateral framework. The EU is a key supporter of the multilateral trading system and seeks to address the challenges that the WTO faces. In September 2018, the Commission published a concept paper on WTO reform, in particular in the areas of rule-making, regular work and transparency, and dispute settlement. Other countries have also been working on WTO reform, sometimes together with the EU. A meeting of 13 WTO members, including the EU, to discuss reform proposals is due to take place in Canada on 24 and 25 October 2018. The European Parliament strongly supports the multilateral trading system and has expressed its support for efforts to reform the WTO. Parliament’s International Trade Committee is currently drafting an own-initiative report on the matter. This is a further update of a briefing published in December 2017. Briefing EN How to include ’Mode 5’ services commitments in bilateral free trade agreements and at multilateral stage? Type de publication Étude Date11-07-2018 Auteur externeMs Marina FOLTEA Domaine politiqueCommerce international Mot-cléaccord de libre-échange | biens et services | commerce électronique | conséquence économique | GATS | Internet des objets | libération des échanges | nouvelle technologie | négociation tarifaire | Organisation mondiale du commerce | politique commerciale commune | prestation de services | secteur tertiaire | valeur en douane Résumé Mode 5 refers to services which are incorporated into goods which are then traded across international borders. Unlike traditional services, Mode 5 services are not subject to the existing international trade regime under the WTO General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS). Rather, they are subject to trade rules under the framework that governs trade in goods. As a consequence, trade in Mode 5 services is not fully liberalised, even though liberalisation would be in the best interest of international trade and the European Union. This report explores different avenues for including Mode 5 service commitments in multilateral trade agreements and free trade agreements, analyzing benefits and associated challenges. The broad conclusion is that while it may be possible to pursue Mode 5 options at the multilateral level, the most viable immediate strategy would consist in including such commitments in free trade agreements between the EU and its trading partners.

International Agreements in Progress - EU-Japan trade agreement: a driver for closer cooperation beyond trade Type de publication Briefing Date 09-07-2018 Auteur BINDER Krisztina Domaine politique Affaires étrangères | Commerce international Mot-clé accord commercial (UE) | analyse économique | commerce international | entrave non tarifaire | investissement étranger | Japon | modes alternatifs de résolution des conflits | négociation d'accord (UE) | négociation tarifaire | protection des données Résumé Negotiations on an EU-Japan trade agreement were officially launched in March 2013. Following the political agreement in principle reached in July 2017, a final accord on the EU-Japan Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA) was announced in December 2017. On 18 April 2018, the European Commission proposed to the Council of the European Union to sign and conclude the agreement. The Commission expects that the EU-Japan EPA can be signed in July 2018, and aims to have the agreement come into effect before the end of its mandate in 2019, following approval by the Council and the European Parliament. The EU-Japan EPA will establish a free trade area with a combined market of around 640 million consumers that accounts for roughly a third of the world's gross domestic product (GDP). The 2016 Trade Sustainability Impact Assessment (Trade SIA) of the agreement indicated that EU exports to Japan could rise by up to 34 %, and according to a more recent Commission estimate, European companies would save up to €1 billion in customs duties per year as a result of the EU-Japan EPA. In addition to exploiting the untapped potential of bilateral trade, the agreement is also of strategic importance, conveying a strong message of the parties' commitment to promoting a free and fair trading system based on rules, and to reject trade protectionism.

Briefing EN Protectionism and international diplomacy Type de publicationÉtude Date 25-06-2018 Auteur externe Ms Kamala DAWAR Domaine politique Affaires étrangères | Commerce international Mot-clé Chine | commerce international | dénonciation d'accord | géopolitique | mondialisation | négociation tarifaire | Organisation mondiale du commerce | politique commerciale | politique commerciale commune | protectionnisme | relation commerciale | retrait de l’UE | Royaume-Uni | réforme institutionnelle | situation de l'Union européenne | situation économique | États-Unis Résumé Just three decades after the fall of the Berlin Wall signifying the end of Cold War aggression and the ascendancy of international liberalism, the world faces even greater uncertainty. In every region of the world, geopolitical shifts are taking place that have brought offensive trade agendas to the fore. The US has withdrawn from underwriting the post- World War Two international economic and foreign policy architecture, instead proposing to build a wall between itself and neighbouring Mexico, imposing unilateral tariff increases while refusing to negotiate new international agreements. In Europe, the project of ever greater integration has been attacked by Brexit, as well as other populist sentiment against the perceived power of EU institutions and the forces of globalisation. The breakdown of the western coalition advocating global governance has left a power vacuum that other key players such as China are forced to respond to. These current tectonic shifts in power and foreign policy positions impact on every country and every individual in the early 21st century. While many governments strive to maintain international cooperation and further integration, it is an unpredictable era. For trade policy has established itself firmly within the arena of high foreign diplomacy and as a result, traditional assumptions and adherence to international norms can no longer be assumed in such a state of political and economic flux. Yet when trade policy becomes a tool of diplomacy and foreign policy, sound economic reasoning can be lost to political decision making. This report shines a spotlight on the rise of protectionism in the 21st century. It examines the diplomatic dynamics behind economic nationalism and its attack on the established liberal international institutions that were created after the second World War to settle disputes without recourse to war. Before focusing on the US, UK, EU and China, the first chapter centers on the threat to economic integration and cooperation in promoting sustainable development through the multilateral rules-based system established under the World Trade Organization.

Malgré l’impasse dans laquelle se trouve le cycle de Doha pour le développement, des moyens de répondre aux nouveaux défis en matière de commerce mondial sont actuellement à l’étude. L’accord sur la facilitation des échanges de 2013 ouvre la voie à une évolution des règles commerciales de l’OMC. Dans les termes du traité de Lisbonne, le Parlement légifère conjointement avec le Conseil et joue un rôle important dans l’examen de la politique commerciale internationale, notamment l’action de l’Union au sein de l’OMC.

Research for AGRI Committee - The Interactions between the EU's External Action and the Common Agricultural Policy Type de publicationÉtude Date 07-07-2016 Auteur externe Alan SWINBANK (School of Agriculture, Policy and Development, University of Reading, the UK) Domaine politique Agriculture et développement rural | Planification Mot-clé accord de libre-échange | agriculture durable | aide au développement | aide à l'agriculture | convention ACP-UE | différend commercial | GATT | négociation tarifaire | Organisation mondiale du commerce | politique agricole commune | politique commerciale commune | politique européenne de voisinage | préférences généralisées | rapport agriculture- commerce | réduction des émissions de gaz | échange agricole | élargissement de l'UE Résumé The CAP has been strongly influenced by the EU’s External Actions. The various Enlargements, and trade policies to favour its neighbours to both the East and South, and for its former colonies, have left their mark. However it is external pressures through the GATT/WTO that have had the most defining effect. Current pressures stem from a new generation of Free Trade agreements, the need to reduce agriculture’s greenhouse gas emissions, and to respond to Brexit. Étude EN, PL Importance économique du commerce des services: Document de référence pour les négociations en vue d'un accord sur le commerce des services (ACS) Type de publication Analyse approfondie Date18-02-2015 AuteurSCHOELLMANN Wilhelm Domaine politiqueCommerce international Mot-cléentrave non tarifaire | exportation (UE) | GATS | importation (UE) | libre prestation de services | méthode statistique | négociation tarifaire | politique commerciale commune | statistique commerciale | statistique économique | échange commercial Résumé Cinquante-et-un membres de l'Organisation mondiale du commerce (OMC) (Australie, Canada, Chili, Taipei chinois, Colombie, Costa Rica, Hong Kong, Islande, Israël, Japon, Liechtenstein, Mexique, Nouvelle-Zélande, Norvège, Pakistan, Panama, Paraguay, Pérou, Corée du Sud, Suisse, Turquie, États-Unis et Union européenne avec ses 28 États membres) tentent, depuis mars 2013, de sortir de l'impasse dans laquelle se trouve le cycle de Doha en ce qui concerne la libéralisation du commerce des services. Ces pays représentent, ensemble, plus de deux tiers du commerce mondial des services. Le secteur des services représente plus de 70 % du PIB de l’Union européenne et d’autres économies développées, ainsi qu'une part importante du PIB des économies émergentes. Le secteur est également le principal employeur dans l’Union et d’autres économies avancées. Or, le commerce des services, en proportion du total des échanges internationaux, se situe bien en deçà de l'importance qu'il revêt dans l’activité économique en général. La part des services dans l'ensemble des échanges est faible notamment en raison de leur nature peu échangeable, de la sous-estimation, dans les statistiques, de leur importance dans l'ensemble des échanges, dans la balance des paiements, et des obstacles à leur commerce. Les responsables politiques prennent des mesures en matière de commerce des services afin de renforcer la protection des consommateurs, de lutter contre les défaillances du marché et d'assurer une position favorable en actions. Dans le même temps, les obstacles au commerce imposés par les gouvernements peuvent réduire l’efficacité et l’éventail des services fournis. Étant donné que les services sont indispensables pour assurer le bon fonctionnement de l’économie et qu'ils jouent un rôle de plus en plus important dans la facilitation des échanges internationaux de marchandises, les restrictions imposées à leur commerce peuvent réduire la compétitivité internationale d'une économie. Le calcul des droits de douane équivalents pour les mesures non tarifaires et la compilation des indices sur le caractère restrictif des échanges de services permettent de comparer les mesures non tarifaires entre les pays et servent de référence pour les gouvernements et les négociateurs lorsque ceux-ci envisagent de renégocier le cadre régissant le commerce international des services. Analyse approfondie DE, EN, FR The European Union’s Trade Policy, Five Years After the Lisbon Treaty Type de publicationAnalyse approfondie Date 03-03-2014 Auteur BENDINI Roberto Domaine politique Commerce international Mot-clé accord (UE) | accès au marché | contrat public | libération des échanges | négociation tarifaire | politique commerciale commune | politique d'investissement | préférences généralisées | relation commerciale | traité de Lisbonne | transparence du processus décisionnel Résumé Despite the global economic crisis of 2008 and the spectacular rise of new emerging powers, the European Union (EU) remains one of the world's leading economies. The EU's trade policy has fundamentally changed in recent years. One of the founding and most influential members of the World Trade Organisation (WTO), the EU has been compelled to acknowledge that the multilateral approach that it had adopted for many years has not yielded genuine progress. In response, the EU launched a new strategy to combine its multilateral approach with renewed efforts to forge bilateral trade deals. The traditionally technocratic approach of the EU’s trade policy was radically changed by the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty in 2009; with this treaty, the Commission lost its unilateral control in the domain, while the European Parliament gained an important voice.

WTO Back on Track After Bali Type de publication Briefing Date 11-12-2013 Auteur BENDINI Roberto Domaine politique Commerce international Mot-clé accord commercial | accès au marché | commerce international | contingent tarifaire | marché de services | négociation tarifaire | pays moins développé | produit originaire | simplification des formalités | échange agricole Résumé An agreement on trade reached through the World Trade Organisation in Bali will likely reduce global trading costs by 10-15 %. Red tape is likely to be substantially reduced. While the deal includes some new provisions on agriculture, the issue remains a thorny one among negotiating parties. The package also includes concessions on market access for developing countries. The Bali ministerial meeting marked good progress, but there remains much to be done before the WTO can conclude the Doha Development Round. The global trading system has changed since the Doha round was initiated, and this should be taken into account. Briefing EN Modernisation des instruments de défense commerciale : première évaluation de l'analyse d'impact de la Commission européenne Type de publication Briefing Date 14-10-2013 Auteur BALLON Elke Domaine politique Commerce international | Évaluation de l''impact ex ante Mot-clé clause de sauvegarde | clause sociale | commerce international | coopération commerciale | mesure antidumping | négociation tarifaire | Organisation mondiale du commerce | politique commerciale commune | restriction à l'importation | étude d'impact Résumé La présente note a pour objectif de fournir une première analyse des points forts et des faiblesses de l'analyse d'impact (AI) de la Commission européenne accompagnant sa proposition relative à un règlement du Parlement européen et du Conseil modifiant le règlement (CE) n° 1225/2009 du Conseil relatif à la défense contre les importations qui font l'objet d'un dumping de la part de pays non membres de la Communauté européenne et le règlement (CE) n° 597/2009 du Conseil relatif à la défense contre les importations qui font l'objet de subventions de la part de pays non membres de la Communauté européenne (COM(2013) 192 final). Cette proposition a été présentée le 10 avril 2013 et vise à moderniser la politique de défense commerciale de l'Union européenne afin de la rendre apte à affronter les nouveaux défis qui se font jour dans le domaine du commerce international. Il s'agit de déterminer si l'analyse d'impact respecte les principaux critères établis dans les lignes directrices de la Commission concernant l'analyse d'impact et les autres paramètres définis par le Parlement européen dans son guide pratique des analyses d'impact. Elle n'a pas vocation à examiner le contenu de la proposition. La présente note est élaborée à des fins d'information et de mise en contexte afin d'offrir une assistance plus large aux commissions parlementaires et aux députés dans leurs travaux.

Trade and Economic Relations with Japan : Assessing the Hurdles to the FTA Type de publicationAnalyse approfondie Date 26-06-2012 Auteur ARMANOVICA Marika Domaine politique Affaires étrangères | Commerce international Mot-clé accord de libre-échange | balance commerciale | investissement public | Japon | négociation tarifaire | situation économique | séisme Résumé Japan's recent economic performance is generally described as unattractive, particularly when compared to its growth twenty years ago. Yet perhaps the glass is half-full rather than half-empty: the Japanese economy still ranks third in the world after the US and China, living standards are high, and the country has recovered well from the 2011 earthquake, given the scale of the disaster. Yet Japan faces tremendous challenges, including economic stagnation, a high fiscal deficit and an ageing population. The 2011 catastrophe undermined the revitalisation programme that had been launched, although it also created a sense of urgency to move forward with reforms. Opening the country to competition from the outside is integral to its rebirth strategy, and the free trade agreement (FTA) with the EU would contribute to that opening. Though consultations on the ambition of the accord have been finalised, its success is uncertain. A number of stakeholders in the EU are sceptical of the benefits and of Japan's readiness to implement commitments, especially on non-tariff barriers. Yet others believe that if Europe postpones the process at a moment when it faces economic slowdown, the delay will send a negative signal to a country that is an important trade partner and investor. Analyse approfondie EN The EU and the WTO Dispute Settlement Procedure as Applied to Agriculture Type de publication Étude Date 01-01-2000 Auteur externe O'Connor and Company, Brussels Domaine politique Agriculture et développement rural | Commerce international Mot-clé arbitrage commercial international | différend commercial | négociation tarifaire | Organe de règlement des différends | organisation internationale | politique agricole commune | règlement intérieur | échange agricole Résumé This report examines the impact of the WTO dispute settlement system on the CAP. Other WTO Agreements (in particular the agreement on agriculture, the agreement on the application of sanitary and phytosanitary measures, and the agreement on technical barriers to trade) have more direct impact on the CAP. These agreements have set out the Community's main negotiated commitments in this sector. The dispute settlement procedure merely interprets and clarifies these commitments and their implementation.
