Ministers, I address you today as two of our most closest allies and trade partners with a proposal. Up to know, Argentina has been discussing trade policies individually with both Brazil and Canada, but now, recognizing the importance of the free market practices to provide competitive and afforable products to both our populations as well as to feed our industries, we would like to propose to establish a trade bloc between our nations to lower barriers to trade, such as tariffs and others, and to automatically open our markets to certain products. The idea behind this is to automatically allow for our nations to exports the goods we produce without additional and complicated paperwork and requirements, while also removing tariffs. The mechanism would be through the establishment of standarized forms that we submit to an executive secretariat we would establish and that manages all public trade related information. These standarized forms will include the products that said nation will export to the other members of the trade block, and ports of departure and arrival, as well as a list of potential goods it wishes to specifically NOT include in this deal and that would need special discussions to take place for it to be traded. Obviously the less we use this "exception" the better, but it is important to still give our Governments the tools to protect special sectors we wish to foster. Is this something that would be in our interests? If so, I would like to invite you to Buenos Aires for a first round of preliminary talks. If this project consolidates, we could eventually address commerce with extra-regional trade partners on a more strong relative position. Sincerely yours, Esteban Andrada Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Trade Republic of Argentina |
