TTIP旨在建立跨大西洋彼岸的共同自由贸易区,谈判历时5年,从搁置到重启,再到搁置,进程曲折。TTIP第15回合取得了实质性的进展,特别是在市场准入、监管等领域表现的尤为突出。但是在贸易关税减让条目、服务贸易、劳工问题、政府采购、投资争端解决机制等问题上始终存在分歧,最终TTIP能否取得谈判成功在很大程度上仍需要美欧双方在这些敏感领域做出让步和妥协。在这些议题中劳工问题、政府采购、投资争端解决机制一直是中国自由贸易协定的短板。面对来自TTIP的挑战,中国应重视规则不够健全的领域,积极参与双边和多边自贸协定的谈判,逐步建立与国际接轨的高标准的自贸区网络体系。
The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership Agreement aims to establish a common free tradearea across the Atlantic coast. The negotiations took 5 years, from shelving to restarting, then to shelving, andthe process was tortuous. Substantial progress has been made in the fifteenth round of the TTIP, particularly inareas such as market access and regulation. But always have different opinions on trade in tariff concession item,services, labor, government procurement, the investment dispute settlement mechanism and so on. Ultimately,to a large extent, the negotiation remains in need of both the United States and Europe to make concessions andcompromise in these sensitive areas. In these issues, government procurement, labor, and investment disputeresolution mechanisms have been the shortcomings of China's free trade agreements. To meet the challengesof TTIP, China should pay attention to areas where the rules are not sound enough, actively participate inbilateral and multilateral FTA negotiations, and gradually establish a high standard of international trade withinternational standards District network system.
