Speaking at the European Forum Alpbach Juan José Gomez Camacho Ambassador, Permanent Representation of Mexico to the EU, discussed Mexico’s unique position regarding the TTIP agreement. In his introductory remarks at the GED sponsored “How to Make TTIP Inclusive for All”, Gomez Camacho noted that Mexico’s position as a major U.S. trading partner and NAFTA signatory, means TTIP will have an enhanced impact on this developing country, both positive and negative.
