Dela

Maria (Mia) Åsenius talks about the highlights of her 5 years as the Head of Cabinet for Cecilia Malmström (EU Commissioner of Trade). She discusses the "Trade for All" initiative and how it helped to guide the negotiations of the bilateral agreements negotiated under their administration:  EU - Singapore (re-visited and split into FTA an investment agreement), EU - Vietnam, EU - Japan, EU - Canada (CETA), and EU -MERCOSUR (concluded but not ratified).

Maria discusses what goes into negotiating these agreements and why Commissioner Malmström has been so successful in doing so.  Other topics include the WTO dispute settlement body, geographical indicators, and the future of EU trade.
