Report by the European Communities

This Trade Policy Review of the European Communities (EC) refers to the period 2007-08, which was a time of several major anniversaries in the context of the European integration process. Rather than just looking back and celebrating past achievements, these anniversaries were used to reinvigorate on-going efforts and launch new initiatives in the various areas of EC activity, including trade policy, that aim to consolidate, and build upon these significant earlier accomplishments as well as to respond to evolving priorities and the ever changing global environment.
