Języki publikacji
Abstrakty
We wrześniu 2014 r. przedstawiciele Unii Europejskiej oraz Kanady zaprezentowali oficjalnie tekst Kompleksowej umowy gospodarczej i handlowej (Comprehensive Trade and Economic Agreement - CETA). Nowa umowa jest kolejnym dwustronnym porozumieniem o wolnym handlu wynegocjowanym przez UE, w tym pierwszym z krajem należącym do grupy G-7. Negocjacje nad nową umową trwały pięć lat. Wśród najważniejszych kwestii spornych znalazły się m.in. eksport europejskich serów do Kanady i eksport kanadyjskiej wołowiny na rynek UE. Zgodnie z umową, najpóźniej w ciągu siedmiu lat od jej wejścia w życie, bezcłowy handel powinien objąć wszystkie towary przemysłowe i rybołówstwa oraz większość produktów rolnych. Porozumienie, oprócz głębokiej liberalizacji handlu towarami i usługami, reguluje także kwestie dostępu do sektora zamówień publicznych i bezpośrednich inwestycji zagranicznych, w tym wzajemną ochronę inwestycji. Szczególnie ta ostatnia kwestia budzi w dalszym ciągu sprzeciw niektórych środowisk i polityków, co może negatywnie wpłynąć na proces ratyfikacji i opóźnić moment wejścia w życie nowego porozumienia.

In September 2014, the representatives of the European Union and Canada officially announced the final text of Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement - CETA. The new document is the EU subsequent bilateral free trade agreement, and the first concluded with a G-7 country. The negotiations between the Parties took five years. Among the most contentious issues were exports of European cheese to Canada and exports of Canadian beef to the EU. According to the agreement, all trade in manufactured goods and fisheries and almost all trade in agricultural products will be liberalised within maximum seven years since the entry of the agreement into force. The agreement, apart from the deep liberalisation of trade in goods and services, includes among others provisions on public procurement and foreign direct investment, together with investment protection standards. The latter regulation has been especially controversial and is still contested by some organisations and politicians, what may adversely affect the ratification process and delay the entry of the agreement into force.
