It significantly benefits consumers by expanding choices\u2014a sentiment shared by 60% of Europeans\u2014and attracts foreign investments that drive growth and innovation. Furthermore, diversified sourcing and export strategies strengthen the EU\u2019s ability to navigate and overcome crises.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These facts reinforce the necessity of maintaining openness and growth as fundamental components of the EU\u2019s trade policy. Achieving this requires deliberate prioritisation of policies that open new and diversified markets through trade agreements and reduce technical barriers to trade.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In their Joint Declaration, the 31 associations outline their vision for a successful EU trade policy in the upcoming institutional cycle. The coalition\u2019s primary call to action is to enhance trade openness by pursuing new and renewed trade agreements to improve market access.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additionally, the coalition advocates for the appointment of a dedicated Commissioner for Trade to oversee this exclusive EU competence, ensuring focused leadership and strategic direction.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The coalition calls on the EU to continue supporting The World Trade Organization (WTO) and the international rules-based system, which are key to ensuring a fair and predictable trade environment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lastly, the open trade coalition calls for increased collaboration with third-country partners and a more robust trade diplomacy to support an ambitious open trade policy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The coalition firmly believes that these priorities related to strengthening trade openness, appointing a dedicated trade Commissioner, supporting the WTO and enhancing Cooperation and Trade Diplomacy are crucial for the EU to maintain its global economic leadership and secure a prosperous future for its citizens.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A coalition of\u00a031 leading European business associations has come together to call for an ambitious and open trade policy to support the EU\u2019s competitiveness and economic prosperity.
