?TTIP negotiations between EU and US have de facto failed? ? German economy minister - GoFuckYourself.com

Talks between the EU and the US on the Trans-Atlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, or TTIP, have essentially failed, German Vice Chancellor and Economy Minister Sigmar Gabriel has said.

?In my opinion the negotiations with the United States have de facto failed, even though nobody is really admitting it,? the minister told ZDF broadcaster, according to a written transcript of the interview to be aired on Sunday.

?[They] have failed because we Europeans did not want to subject ourselves to American demands.?

He noted that throughout 14 rounds of talks the two sides have not been able to find common ground on a single chapter of the deal being discussed. Among the stumbling blocks is a US objection to opening public tenders to European companies.

?For me, that goes against free trade," Gabriel previously commented regarding the issue.

Washington has been insisting that the free trade deal be signed before the end of 2016, but it has encountered strong opposition from a number of European nations, not only Germany.

Critics claim that TTIP is dangerous as it could place the interest of international corporations above those of the nations they operate in, and undermine European standards for labor and environmental protections.

Gabriel compared TTIP with the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA), a free-trade treaty that the EU and Canada have been negotiating, which he said was fairer on the parties involved.
