Danger in sight for the Canada-EU agreement

More than two years after its ratification and provisional implementation on the European side, the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) does not draw as much attention as the vicissitudes of ratifying the Canada – United States Agreement –Mexico (ACEUM).

However, criticism of the agreement is growing stronger in Europe and there are still significant risks of it being blocked by one or more member countries of the European Union (EU).

The Social Democratic Party of the Netherlands is now opposing the ratification of CETA, which means that there is no longer a majority to support the agreement in the country's Senate.
