The Second Round of Negotiations for the signing of a Trade Agreement between Ecuador and Canada will take place virtually from June 10 to 18, 2024.
Following the completion of the First Round of Negotiations, which took place from April 29 to May 8, the technical teams have held several meetings with the aim of advancing the discussion and analysis of the texts of the different disciplines.
It has been contemplated that, in this new day, the negotiation of disciplines such as Intellectual Property oriented towards cooperation, Competition Policy and Investments will be included. Additionally, the rapprochements maintained between Chief Negotiators have made it possible to identify the progress and achievements achieved in each of the negotiated disciplines.
The development of the Second Round of Negotiations marks a significant step towards deepening trade cooperation between Ecuador and Canada; and will continue to lay the foundation for constructive dialogue and mutually beneficial collaboration to explore opportunities to expand the exchange of goods and services, as well as measures to facilitate bilateral trade.
