Why would existing signatories to the agreement wish to allow the US to join when the US is likely to declare a national defence justification for tariffs against any of them?

Plus, the IP provisions are only out because America pulled out. They reactivate if America comes back in. No thanks.

Seems obviously utterly false and made up, since the U.S. just dropped investor-state dispute settlement from the NAFTA replacement:https://www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/nafta-usmca-trade-trump-protectionism-by-jeffrey-frankel-2018-10 …

The IP sections are currently suspended. If I understood TPP correctly, they would have reinstated on the US re-entering. With CPTPP, there would have to be agreement that the provisions be reinstated. US unlikely to rejoin without.https://www.mfat.govt.nz/en/trade/free-trade-agreements/free-trade-agreements-concluded-but-not-in-force/cptpp/tpp-and-cptpp-the-differences-explained/#what …

But we should! And the new NAFTA replacement shows we very well might. Now take your assertion back, Eric!

You should, but none of the rest of us should let you in. Not a trustworthy counterparty. Any increased market access to the US could be undone in a second by the Idiot declaring that some sector is strategic and so tariffs apply.

He should call it the Trans-Trans-Pacific Partnership

Why wouldn't he just call it the Trump Pacific Partnership?

If they do that, it should definitely be the Trumpacific Partnership

Unusual for you Noah to back TPP. It contains some powerful clauses giving corporates some very big powers. I respect you !

Any article arguing proTPP really should grapple with likely pressure to reintroduce those IP parts from the US (which we did originally)

Getting TPP up and running would undo maybe half the harm from China tariffs.
