2. • "I HOPE WE HAVE A
FANTASTIC RELATIONSHIP.
THAT'S POSSIBLE, AND IT'S
ALSO POSSIBLE THAT WE
WON'T. WE WILL SEE WHAT
HAPPENS,“
Obama imposed sanctions on Russia throughout his
eight years as president and earlier this month
expelled 35 Russian diplomats from the United States
for alleged Russian interference in the 2016 election.
Obama's administration also sanctioned a host of
Russian banks, defense contractors and energy
companies in 2014 for Russia's continued support for
separatists in Ukraine and earlier in the year the
administration imposed a range of measures,
including asset freezes and travel bans, in response
to Russia's annexation of Crimea.
3. TPP
Donald Trump signed an executive
order to withdraw from the Trans-
Pacific Economic Cooperation
Agreement (TPP)
we will negotiate bilateral
trade agreements that
generate jobs and industry
in the US again.
In its 30 chapters, the agreement
regulates a large number of
issues, ranging from the dairy
trade, to labor regulation, through
copyright, patents, state
investments and the environment.
4. So now, before the perception of leadership
vacuum, China is ready to occupy it.
China, therefore, will not close to the world,
but will open more.
The Regional Integral Regional Economic
Partnership (RCEP) and the Asia-Pacific
Free Trade Area (FTAAP).
To this end, it has proposed the creation of
financial institutions such as the Asian
Investment Bank in Infrastructure (AIIB)
to start working on a bilateral trade
agreement, It is necessary that the UK does
effectively exits the European Union.
According to Trump, Brexit will be good for
the UK and the country will make its own
deals.
5. Renegotiate the North American Free
Trade Agreement (NAFTA) between
Mexico, Canada and the United States
that has been in force for 20 years, as
part of its frontal campaign against
globalization, accusing it of being
responsible for US jobs abroad.
Trump has also pledged to get
Mexico to pay for a wall along the
United States' southern border --
potentially, he has said, through
tariffs. Imposing those border taxes
now would violate NAFTA.
Any move to change the terms of
NAFTA or withdraw from the deal also
runs the risk of being met with
retaliatory tariff hikes in other
countries -- meaning the cost of
goods shipped to the United States
could become higher for American
consumers, and US companies could
lose access to key foreign markets.
6. USA AND ARGENTINA
• ARGENTINA IS THE LEADING PRODUCER, EXPORTING TO THE ENTIRE PLANET
BUT NOT TO THE US. SINCE 2001 THE ARGENTINE LEMONS HAD THE
ENTRANCE BLOCKED IN THIS COUNTRY. AFTER INTENSE NEGOTIATIONS
BETWEEN THE GOVERNMENT OF MAURICIO MACRI AND THE ONE OF BARACK
OBAMA, FINALLY IT HAS BEEN ABLE TO UNLOCK THE SUBJECT AND TO SOLVE IT
IN DECEMBER, WHEN THE IMPORTATION OF ARGENTINE LEMONS WAS
AUTHORIZED. HOWEVER, ONE OF THE FIRST MEASURES OF THE TRUMP
ADMINISTRATION HAS BEEN PRECISELY THE BLOCKING OF THE ARRIVAL OF
THE ARGENTINES LEMONS.
7. • ARGENTINA HAS LIVED 15 YEARS WITHOUT EXPORTING LEMONS TO THE US AND
THEREFORE HAS OTHER MARKETS WITH WHICH THEY SURVIVE IN THE LEADING
INDUSTRY THAT IS ESPECIALLY CONCENTRATED IN THE PROVINCE OF TUCUMÁN
• PRODUCERS IN CALIFORNIA, WHO COMPETE WITH ARGENTINES, HAVE MANAGED
TO BLOCK THROUGH THE COURTS THE ENTRY OF CITRUS FROM THE SOUTHERN
COUNTRY FOR ALLEGEDLY FAILING TO COMPLY WITH PHYTOSANITARY
REQUIREMENTS.
