You will learn about the third consolidated Annual Report on the Implementation and Enforcement of EU Trade Policy. Chief Trade Enforcement Officer (CTEO) Mr. Denis Redonnet will guide you through the main activities carried out in 2022 and the first quarter of 2023 (the reporting period) to provide an overview of the concrete achievements and the challenges encountered when promoting trade agreements, and in preventing or removing market access barriers and infringements of trade and sustainable development commitments.

The report will also provide examples of Commission activities helping small and medium-sized enterprises to navigate international trade, including through IT tools such as Access2Markets. Furthermore, you will receive an update on some of the main EU legislative instruments adopted or substantially advanced over the reporting period. 

A Staff Working Document will accompany the report, providing an update on the implementation of 39 major trade agreements, as well as a list of new barriers reported and those resolved in 2022. Both the report and the Staff Working Document will be published on the Commission’s website. You will receive the requisite links as soon as the documents are available. Registered participants will be informed of the publication.
