What opportunities do #FTAs offer for EU economy & people? How can we guarantee the import of the critical raw marerials needed for green transition, including for the HU production of batteries for the electric cars? This is what we explored yesterday at #HUN #Economic Club.

EU should be united, economically and politically strong, abandon labelling its MSs and third countries, be quicker in concluding #FTAs and focus on its own interests, not on other's.

@EP_Trade debate on #GDIP: I stressed that we need to wrap up our #FTAs waiting in the pipeline, we have no more time to lose.

Commission should improve the communication about FTAs as there is a lot of misinformation pushing some MSs to block important FTAs.

We support the new benchmark on Trade & Sustainable Development:
📌Results-oriented approach, with sanctions as last resort
📌Recognised role of #civilsociety and #DAGs
📌Mainstreaming #sustainability across #FTAs
📌Consistency with other autonomous instruments

We will boost our competitiveness when all the #FTAs in the pipeline will enter into force and new markets will open up for our companies. I ask the Presidency to remain perseverant in the Council and to be prepared for over-exaggerative expectations from the Parliament.

As @EP_Trade 1st Vice-chair, I fully agree with and support the @BusinessEurope letter. In trade, we need to do more - and time is running short, as next #EP elections are to be held in less than 17 months.
Let’s face the challenge!

We fully agree & we're working on it!

Trade agreements with trusted partners provide both mutual economic gains and a platform to work together on global challenges like climate change, sustainability, a level
playing field. #EUTrade

Very good piece on the future of FTAs.

RT @uk_tpo@twitter.com

Trade cooperation seems like it has never been higher on the political agenda, but new trade arrangements don’t look much like the #FTAs of the past.

Thanks to @HSSde & @MartensCentre for inviting me to speak about the #EU’s Role in Revitalising the Global #Trade System.

My key messages:
1. Let’s support @wto reform.

RT @Eurochambres: Discussing trade integration in uncertain economic times during the #markets session, MEP @AnnaAsimakopoul highlighted the need to ratify #FTAs: "It's more important that we negotiate FTAs in the first place. It's time for a new generation of EU #Trade deals."

Interesting @EP_Trade debate on 2nd annual report on the implementation of trade agreements.

The primary goal of trade should be to create opportunities for EU companies and by this to create jobs. New #FTAs are key in this.

The #EU is committed to delivering a new generation of #FTAs. These will create #jobs and #investment opportunities, but they are also key to us winning the global race for #rules & #values. See my intervention on this below. #Plenary #AnnaMichelleMEP

The @europarl_en #plenary voted w/ an overwhelming majority to support @EP_Trade’s resolution on the #TSD review

Today in plenary's debate on the review of TSD chapters I emphasized that #Europe needs to diversify its suppliers and markets. For that we need as many #FTAs as possible.
