Yhteenveto : This paper examines the trade aspects of the Strategic Dialogue on the future of EU agriculture and its impact on the competitiveness and sustainability of European agriculture. It highlights the dual role of trade as both a challenge and an opportunity for the EU agricultural sector. On the one hand, trade opens new markets and provides access to essential inputs, thereby increasing productivity and profitability. On the other hand, it introduces competitive pressure and market volatility, requiring constant innovation and efficiency. The paper identifies offensive sectors of EU agriculture, such as alcoholic beverages and cereals, which benefit from trade, and defensive sectors, such as beef and sugar, which are vulnerable to international competition. It also discusses the regulatory divergences faced by EU farmers and the need for a level playing field to ensure fair competition. The paper concludes with recommendations to support farmers, strengthen border controls, promote EU standards globally and reduce import dependency in order to improve the resilience and sustainability of the EU agricultural sector.

Yhteenveto : Commitments made at the confirmation hearings of the Commissioners-designate 2024-2029

Yhteenveto : The European Union鈥檚 policies influence third country trading partners鈥� domestic policy in different ways. Unilateral legislation in the green and digital fields, for example, contribute to setting global standards as traders must comply with EU requirements to access the Single market. The digital transition cooperation between Africa and the EU could lead to further regulatory convergence in the digital field. The EU's human-centric approach to digital policy, fostering consumer protection and trust inter alia through the General Data Protection Regulation, influences the African Continental Free Trade Area. Ensuring market access between Africa and the EU including in the field of e-commerce is strategically desirable for both blocks. Green legislation will impact foreign producers including smallholder and could potentially result in changes in trade flows. The liberalisation of trade through FTAs fosters economic growth and guarantees access to critical resources such as Chilean lithium for the EU鈥檚 digital transition. However, it can also exert environmental and social pressures on trading partners. Lastly, the rules based international trading system established by the WTO can be eroded by government subsidies with significant negative spillover effects on international trade. Global dialogue between trade partners is desirable to avoid a subsidy race .
