An EU-Japan treaty is already in the wind, as is a “Trans-Pacific Partnership” to liberalize trade among the US and major Asian and Latin American economies. If either ever comes to pass, which I doubt, a huge share of world trade would be conducted within a discriminatory framework.
其次，毫无疑问，我们将看到欧盟和美国之间的双边贸易协议。欧盟-日本协议已经出现，“跨太平洋合作伙伴”则旨在实现美国和主要亚洲和拉美经济体之间的贸易自由化。我认为这两者不管何者成为现实，世界贸易的一大部分都将进入歧视框架中。
