US Ambassador to the EU Pledges Concluding TTIP This Year


“If we are going to succeed in completing TTIP this year, we need political will on both sides to maintain our current intensified engagement and bring a pragmatic, problem-solving approach to resolving the remaining issues.”
 
In his remarks to Amcham Dublin, US Ambassador to the European Union Anthony L. Gardner stated that productive TTIP negotiating rounds and intersessional meetings have generated proposed text in the vast majority of the negotiating areas. He laid out the “admittedly ambitious” goal of reaching an advanced stage of text consolidation across the board in July, and resolving the most sensitive issues by the end of the year.
