Abu Dhabi can and must be our first genuine @WTO Reform Ministerial.

It should help us chart a course forward on the future of the global trading system.

Read Australia’s statement here👇🏼

[James Baxter @AusWTO]

Trade plays a powerful role in Fiji’s economy.

And #Fiji plays a powerful role in the global trading system.

A powerful voice in supporting #OurOcean, trade and environment and in so many other areas.

“Bula”, Team Fiji, to Geneva

And here’s the Tamaki Makaurau joint Ministerial Declaration, which Oz is now intending to join https://t.co/ayV97kcocu

Did I mention that #NewZealand released its three-year review of the implementation of CPTPP against metrics established through the Inclusive Trade Action Group? Worth a read https://t.co/oYadBm7ZZ7

[James Baxter @AusWTO]

A big moment as the UK joins the significant #CPTPP agreement, driving deeper global trade reform

This big step reinforces the #CPTPP project

And it reinforces rules-based approaches to global trade built on @WTO rules.

@Trade_EU @IITAdelaide @wto Too bad French and Irish farmers don't see it that way 🤔.

[Australian Embassy, Brussels @AustraliaEU]

A privilege to accompany PM Albanese to the NATO Summit in Vilnius to discuss shared challenges in the Euro-Atlantic and Indo-Pacific.

[Australian Embassy in Germany @AusEmbGermany]

To be able to host PM @AlboMP in my last week as Ambassador to Germany was a perfect culmination of my assignment. With Australia joining the Climate Club, the Boxer deal & 🇩🇪 hosting 100 🇦🇺 personnel & a E-7A Wedgetail to support 🇺🇦, the 🇦🇺-🇩🇪 relationship is stronger than ever.

[EU Trade 🇪🇺 @Trade_EU]

🇪🇺💪 This strategy is vital for the EU's competitiveness and open economy. But we can't do this alone. We need partners.

Trade agreements, the EU's global gateway programme and global @wto rules-based trade are key to obtain economic security.

[Institute for International Trade @IITAdelaide]

Hopefully the EU-Australia FTA deal will be landed!

[Australian Embassy, Brussels @AustraliaEU]

Thrilled to welcome Trade Min. Farrell back to Brussels for discussions w/ 🇪🇺 @VDombrovskis. The #AusEUFTA negotiations will focus on commercially meaningful market access opportunities for our businesses. Looking forward to a productive visit to progress our shared objectives.

Round 3!

[Australian Embassy in Germany @AusEmbGermany]

Super to have Prime Minister Albanese in Berlin to focus his discussion with Chancellor Scholz on these critical topics.

[DFAT Trade Talk 🇦🇺 @DFAT_TradeTalk]

Today, the Handbook on Investing in #Cambodia was launched by 🇦🇺 Special Envoy for #SoutheastAsia Nicholas Moore & 🇰🇭 CDC's Sec-Gen Sok Chenda Sophea. The Handbook is a new guide to encourage investment in 🇰🇭 and 🇦🇺 values the close collaboration between the two countries!

[Institute for International Trade @IITAdelaide]

Congratulations to all parties for concluding the Investment Facilitation for Development Agreement! This proves that the rules-based international trading system is still capable of delivering results. @ax_berger @AusWTO @PeterDraper5 @DFAT_TradeTalk

@AusWTO @AlexanderDowner @NOIweala @_AnabelG @xiangchen_zhang @Paugam_Commerce @dfat @DFAT_TradeTalk @IITAdelaide @wto Exactly right George. Australia's role as a middle power supporter of the multilateral rules-based order also doesn't get the attention it deserves. Congratulations on your significant role in these successes.

[James Baxter @AusWTO]

New agreements at the WTO ?

✅ In 2021, the global services trade deal on behind-the-border barriers concluded

✅ In 2022, the fisheries subsidies treaty concluded

… and, just today,

✅ the 2023 Investment Facilitation negotiations concluded

That’s called momentum.

China is falling into a “balance-sheet recession," according to the economist who coined the phrase to explain Japan’s descent into stagnation in the 1990s https://t.co/fwBpYakHi7
