Among the different issues are canadian dairy barriers. Donald trump as a candidate constantly called nafta the worst trade deal in history. If negotiators are able to come up with a new deal it would still need to go through congress. Joining me now is an economist and the director of a think tank. Thank you for taking the time to speak to us today. Thed you run us through Trump Administration reasons for renegotiating the steel. This deal . Trump on the campaign trail has claimed that nafta is a very bad deal for the United States. For u. S. Workers in particular and he has faulted the nafta trade deal for much of the trade deficit that the United States has and in turn he believes this is responsible for the loss of jobs in the Manufacturing Sector. I think theres a lot of wrong assumptions in here but now he is the president and so she has started a renegotiation of that agreement. When he says that nafta is tilted against the u. S. , thats not the case. I think there a lot of wrong assumptions. Deficits that trade are to be blamed for the decline in manufacturing and for a start, nafta didnt only create trade deficits. It also created associated with trade surpluses. Canada for example, the u. S. Has a trade surplus with canada and the deficit with mexico and we know that the relation between tradedeficit, bilateral deficit and employment is basically nonexistent. I think theres a lot of wrong assumptions in this document. The claim that the u. S. Has one sidedly lost from the deal is just wrong in the sense that the United States consumers have benefited. , theanufacturing sector Manufacturing Sector has benefited from breaking up the value and shifting some production to mexico. Some production to canada. And globally the u. S. Industry has become more competitive thanks to breaking up the value chain. What would you say are likely to be the main sticking points . I think theres a number of big sticking point. The wrong assumptions are already a difficult start because it makes it very difficult to negotiate based on wrong assumptions. I think important sticking points are how to deal with intellectual Property Rights for example which is a major issue where differences clearly will appear. The u. S. Wants to have intellectual Property Rights and a sickly Government Procurement is another big issue where theres a big difference. Trade remedies were the United States want to have the firstinant and by america but not allow mexico to introduce similar clauses. I think theres a lot of really difficult sticking points in this negotiation based on the document that u. S. Treasury trade representative has put out. I foresee this to be a very complicated negotiation. Do you more deep than dadancing f for e sami ive finally ended up in andalusia, in southern spain, the birthplace of flamenco.
