ECIPE invites you to the launch of the ANU Press publication “Australia, the European Union and the New Trade Agenda”

Australia is one of the few OECD countries with which the European Union does not have a comprehensive trade agreement. Australia and the EU are entering a new phase in the bilateral relationship, and the push towards a potential trade agreement has been steadily gaining momentum. On 13 September, the European Commission presented a recommendation to the Council to launch negotiations for an Australia-EU FTA, together with the draft negotiating mandate. Once the Council gives its approval, negotiations can commence.

The Australian Embassy to Belgium and Luxembourg and Mission to the European Union and NATO, the Australian National University (ANU), ECIPE and Australian Business in Europe, Belgium invite you to the launch of the ANU Press publication “Australia, the European Union and the New Trade Agenda”. This publication, initiated and edited by the ANU Centre for European Studies, brings together diverse and practical contributions to the policy debate on the Australia-EU FTA.
