"I voted in favour of Mr Schröder’s report on the development impact of Economic Partnership Agreements (EPAs).
The ‘stepping stone’ agreements signed thus far are just the beginning of a long and fruitful collaboration with these extra-European countries. In the case of the EPAs, a liberalisation process of 15 years was considered acceptable by the EU and the ACP countries. In addition, the minimum requirement for covering ‘substantially all trade’ would be not less than 80% of trade between partners. I am thus persuaded that the development of further agreements can only improve the economic position of both contracting parties."@en1
