External links

Hello everyone, I am working for the International Trade Centre (ITC), a UN/WTO agency that aims to promote sustainable economic development through trade promotion. I would like to propose the addition of an external link (www.macmap.org) that could lead directly to the online database of customs tariffs and non-tariff market requirements, including Rules of Origin, held by ITC. I would like you to consider this link under the WP:ELYES #3 prescriptions. Moreover, the reliability and the pertinence of this link can be supported by the following facts 1) ITC is part of the United Nations 2) No registration is required to access the tool 3) Market access data (Tariffs, non-tariff measures trade agreements and rules of origin) are regularly updated 4) Market Access Map contains up-to date information on rules of origin under preferential trade agreements, including certificates of origin when available. Thank you, Divoc (talk) 23:35, 22 December 2015 (UTC)

Improvements

This article really interested me, talking about how different countries trade with each other countries. It has really good information on trade agreements. As the class I am in, we are all picking certain articles to improve, and I hope that my improvements will help people understand trade agreements better. CJones UG (talk) 19:06, 2 April 2018 (UTC)

This is really good and in depth. Also, very interesting topic and good content. There is also good inlinks and outlinks. Thorough article all together. TVanniel (talk) 02:53, 11 April 2018 (UTC)

What I am missing is something about who the negotiators for such agreements are and how they are chosen. When the (stillborn) TPP was in the media I looked in vain for 'who's having a say over us here?'. Like always, secrecy fed speculation, i.e. are Disney and Fox people negotiating about copyright? Coke and Pepsi people about drink specifications? Only very large companies can obviously send negotiators, and then the results would be tilted towards big business, when we all know that the job situation requires small business not be choked. Another speculation was that members of the Council for Foreign Relations are negotiators. Transparency is missing but very important. 2001:8003:A070:7F00:3939:8:168A:C5FD (talk) 07:14, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
