The Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership includes 10 Southeast Asian nations, along with china, japan, south korea, new zealand and australia. Many in asia are now hoping the deal will help the pandemic hit economies get back on track. Putting the ink on the Worlds LargestFree Trade Agreement in a virtual signing ceremony. The money for the deal was sealed on the sidelines of the ozzie and summit hosted by vietnam. The agreement brings together 15 asia pacific countries with a population of more than 2000000000, people accounting for some 30 percent of the global economy. The 2nd minute, the partnership was nearly a decade in the making. It includes china, the worlds 2nd largest economy, but it leaves out top economic power of the united states. President donald trump quit previous efforts to form a transpacific trade bloc. Members of this new pact hope the further loosening of trade barriers will lead to greater prosperity for the Asia Pacific Region. Disagreement signifies that i rage in which has been the most economically dynamic region of the world in recent days. Hes still committed to openness and to try and that we will use that as a platform and a springboard for recovery in the post era. The agreement is set to reduce tariffs harmonize, trade rules and streamline supply chains. Analysts say it may cement chinas position as asias leading economic power, allowing beijing to call the shots on important trading terms from japan to new zealand. China also stands to benefit by being able to reduce its dependence on other markets, such as the united states. To develop more about the significance of this fact, im joined by clifford cannon from w. Business. Clifford, thanks for coming in at this trade zone is being seen as a coup for beijing. How important is all this for china . Its very important for china. I think its a really significant deal for china if it gets to, to boost its standing in the region by leading this, this without the usa being involved. Also because of the pandemic for the chinese economy has been growing, it needs to boost its exports more. This will help with out, so thats a very important factor for, for china. But also more broadly for the region, it means that people will be able to look at exports again and that there will be free trade. And so the big winner is china, but i think the whole region will probably benefit the u. S. Was not involved just how much do they stand to lose by a excluded from all of this . Well, this is just a sign of the kind of the chaos thats been going on in terms of global trade. Over the last 4 years, intensified of course, by the coronavirus epidemic. The u. S. Will stand to lose quite a lot because it had hoped just out of previous trade agreements which, which dont trump withdrew from i think now with the new president elect in the, in the united states, we may see a move back towards more global trade but its going to take time because the u. S. Still needs to recover from the pandemic. So its going to be a while, i think before the u. S. Can really start to rebuild its standing in the, in the, in global trade. Lets look at this new powerful. 1 block from the european, perspective. How is that likely to affect the e. U. . Well, i think for the e. U. , the e. U. Sees china as a strategic competitor, but has very close working relations with, with the pretty much all the other 14 members of this, of this 15 member trading pact. So i think the is going to be, its going to welcome it will mean cheaper goods and it will mean easier access for european goods, presumably into this Market Going Forward though, europe need the u. S. To be involved as well. So i think its going to take that take that to happen for, for, to really benefit europe and one big asian economy apps and from this club is of course india. Why is that . Well, india and china are now very drill. Ations are very tense right now. That was the reason that india wouldnt join the china led trade pact. I think ultimately, you know, trade talks in asia given the way the importance that india has, can really be seen as a nation trade pact on less. India is a central player in that. So i think that were going to have to see were going to, i think, going forward, i think any more global trade agreements will have to involve china to see the India Different kind of data leave business. Thank you very much. To the u. S. Now where thousands of supporters of president took to the streets of washington on saturday to back his unsubstantiated claims of electoral fraud.
