    EU and US advance in trade talks but high barriers remain

    The chief US negotiator Dan Mullaney said the ultimate goal is to “create opportunities for job creating trade and investment”.

    Officials from the United States and the European Union say they have made progress as they seek to sweep away trade barriers. Teams from the two sides have held a week of discussions in Chevy Chase, Maryland. If successful an agreement would create the world's biggest free trade zone.

    U.S. and Europe talks advance towards liberalizing bilateral trade

    US chief negotiator Dan Mullaney: “Nothing we do to reduce unnecessary regulatory barriers will undermine high standards on both sides on the Atlantic”

    A week of trade talks in Brussels have taken the European Union and the United States a little closer to a deal to liberalize bilateral trade. EU officials say the trade relationship with the US is already the biggest in the world, worth more than 2bn Euros a day, but barriers remain, and removing them could make it even bigger. If it happens, the agreement would be huge, capable of changing the shape of global trade.
