EU-Philippines trade deal revives talk of wider Asean pact
Original: After EU-Philippines trade breakthrough, is Asean-wide deal next?
The European Union and the Philippines have reached a trade breakthrough, and attention is now turning to whether Brussels could pursue a broader agreement with the whole Association of Southeast Asian Nations. Analysts say the Philippine deal could serve as a stepping stone, though an Asean-wide pact would face far greater complexity given the bloc's differing economies and political systems.
Why now: A fresh EU-Philippines trade agreement has raised speculation that the EU may next pursue a region-wide deal with Asean.
