"Mr President, when we look at the EU-US relationship, it is actually the world’s largest trade relationship. Some estimates have got it at about USD 4 trillion in trade investment and sales. Given that, in this time when we are all struggling around looking for ideas for growth, surely it would be a good idea if our two economies moved towards the idea that has been put forward by people on both sides of the Atlantic – a transatlantic zero initiative, eliminating those tariff barriers in goods, and which has been estimated to add trade value of USD 120 billion and new economic growth of about USD 180 billion.
But let us not stop there. Let us now take the moral leadership in the world and show the rest of the world how trade can benefit citizens of all countries and ensure that we tackle the problems that we have in the global economy. Let us tear down those barriers to trade. Let us make sure that we can free the enterprises and have freedom of entrepreneurs across the world. Let us make sure that we create jobs and growth for our citizens."@en1
