"Mr President, Japan is the European Union’s sixth largest trading partner, while the EU is Japan’s third largest trading partner. A free trade agreement between Japan and the European Union would entail substantial benefits for both sides. A large proportion of the benefits deriving from such an agreement will be gained by Japan lifting the barriers, especially non-tariff ones, which it currently imposes on the European Union. A second thorny issue is Japan’s public procurement market, to which European companies are still failing to gain sufficient access. Before initiating the negotiations aimed at achieving a free trade agreement, Japan must demonstrate its willingness to make the necessary concessions in these two areas. Given that the discussions on these subjects have not made sufficient progress so far, it is not appropriate to embark hastily on the negotiations. Before authorising the go-ahead with these, the Council must respect Parliament’s opinion on the proposed negotiating mandate."@en1
