EU-Mexico Trade Agreement

The European Union and Mexico have reached an "agreement in principle" on the main trade parts of a new EU-Mexico association agreement. The new agreement replaces a previous deal between the EU and Mexico from 2000. The original association agreement brought many trade benefits to the EU and Mexico, though some trade barriers still remain. The new deal will: scrap high Mexican tariffs on European food and drinks; allow EU firms to sell more services to Mexico; pledge to protect workers' rights and the environment. Negotiations are focused on completing the technical details of the agreement. Negotiators expect to have a final text of the agreement in late 2018.
