TPP talks coming to Atlanta
Trans Pacific Partnership chief negotiators are meeting in Atlanta, Georgia in the coming days. The U.S. Trade Representative’s (USTR) office says TPP Trade Ministers from the 12 countries will meet afterwards – from September 30th through October 1st in Atlanta.
Trade negotiators last met in July in Hawaii with several agriculture issues unresolved. The U.S. wants more access to Japanese markets and to Canada’s dairy market. Also, Australia wants to export more sugar to the U.S.
The USTR says trade ministers and negotiators “have been making good progress toward resolving the limited number of outstanding issues.”
