WTO agreement on harmful fisheries subsidies shows that WTO can deliver multilateral trade rules, and that WTO can address today’s global sustainability challenges. We call on WTO members to complete their ratification of the Agreement so it can enter into force by MC13. #WTO

The EU-New Zealand trade deal was signed today, paving the way for its approval by the EU Parliament and ratification.
This landmark agreement could save EU businesses €140 million a year and boost EU investment in NZ by 80%.
It will bring us even closer together.
