The new Trade Strategy - Presentation by Commissioner Malmström
Brussels
INTA Members heard from Ms Cecilia Malmström, Commissioner for Trade, ideas for the new trade strategy which is intended to reformulate the EU’s trade priorities.
The European Commission aims to release an updated strategy for the European Union's trade policy in autumn 2015.
In order to deal with the trade challenges resulting from the shifting geopolitical landscape, the Common Commercial Policy is expected to become even stronger in the future.
A robust trade and investment policy strategy must ensure that trade can remain an effective tool to contribute to jobs, economic growth and sustainable development.
