TPP’s First-Mover Advantage

... The proposed institutional framework is virtually identical to the APEC in terms of its organizational structure and the countries that make it up. If we add so-called ‘applicants’ to the current TPP members we’ll find out that all APEC economies (with the exception of Russia, China and Papua New Guinea), can eliminate APEC and switch to cooperation exclusively within Trans-Pacific Partnership framework. China’s position is of particular interest in this respect. While it is often said that the TPP was developed ...

The New APEC Agenda: Inclusive and Sustainable Growth is More Important than Integration

... such a pointed refusal to acknowledge the Eurasian Economic Union may be another sign of the increasingly politicized modern integration agenda.

Will the TPP rupture Asia Pacific

... Experts and politicians are aware that the TPP is an American integration project within the Asia-Pacific. Unfortunately, Russia and China are not APP members, which will encourage them to increase their presence in the APEC. We will be watching the APEC and the APP compete. The Russia–China link will mold, offer preferences, and promise loans to medium and weak countries, and the U.S. will be doing the same.

Integration initiatives: Point of contact

... Philippines concluded – one of the key points of APEC’s annual programme. Trade ministers traditionally meet in the middle of the year to discuss ways to stimulate, facilitate and liberalise trade and investment in the Asia-Pacific region.

G20 Brisbane 2014: Global Pragmatism or Regional Tantrums?

... neutrality, the PRC’s weariness with the USA’s twin-track policy in relation to Beijing will make it possible to continue the policy of moving the two countries closer together within the framework of the G20, as was demonstrated by the APEC meeting and by the signing of a significant package of bilateral agreements between Russia and the PRC.
