Machjo Posted July 17, 2018 Report Posted July 17, 2018 Leaders say EU-Japan pact protects workers | EuronewsTrump and Brexit might in fact be benefiting the EU. for a long time now, the EU has lazily basked in ignorant protectionism. Now faced with the double threats of Brexit and Trump, the EU has finally started to wake up to the need for global free trade.The EU has started to promote free trade not only with Japan but with China too now.Let's hope this new European openness lasts past Trump and Brexit.If Canada were smart, we might want to start to renegotiate our trade agreements with others countries and blocks too now that they're showing more openness to freer trade.

paxamericana Posted July 18, 2018 Report Posted July 18, 2018 (edited) Actually the Europeans are quite wary of Chinese trade, its not free trade. China needs to adopt free trade but can't do it because their economy is largely export dependent. Monetary manipulation does not help their free trade clause, amongst many other trade tactics they've adopted over the years. https://www.ft.com/content/391637d2-215a-11e8-a895-1ba1f72c2c11 Edited July 18, 2018 by Charles Anthony re-copied Opening Post deleted Quote
