How would TPP have helped?
- jonhendry18 7y agoThe whole point of TPP was to strengthen trade links between Asia/Pacific nations except China. Which would have helped strengthen TPP member defenses against trade moves by China.
- jimclegg 7y agoGood luck isolating China from its Asian neighbors, I expect that plan will backfire spectacularly.
- jonhendry18 7y agoWell, everyone else involved in drafting the TPP is still in it. So China's Asian neighbors must see some value in it. Only the US dropped out.
- ebog 7y agoHaving a multinational agreement between several economies that the Chinese economy is hugely dependent on would have been a great trade chip for getting China on board with Western IP laws. That was the whole point of the deal in the first place.
