External relations
Article Abstract:
There are currently a number of significant issues influencing the European Union's external relations. The European Commission's annual report on US trade barriers has a positive tone, but there is still concern within Europe about the way in which the US will apply the new World Trade Organization deal on telecommunications liberalization. Some observers are also worried about the fact that some US trade legislation still contains extraterritorial provisions. The European Union is still involved in a number of disputes which have been referred to the World Trade Organization.

External relations
Article Abstract:
The European Union continues to be involved in a number of trade disputes with the US, and these have overshadowed the agreement at the end of 1998 on a new transatlantic economic partnership. However, a number of positive developments have taken place recently with regard to the European Union's external relations. Considerable efforts are being made to accelerate the enlargement process, while a trade agreement with South Africa is to be finalized shortly. Negotiations for a free trade deal with Mexico began in Jan 1999.
