Two continents. One strong partnership 🇪🇺🤝🇦🇺
After almost a decade of work, we concluded the EU–Australia Free Trade Agreement. A win on both sides.
The agreement will:
🌍 boost EU exports to Australia, with growth of 33% expected over the next decade
🌍 save €1 billion in tariffs
🌍 create new opportunities for businesses and farmers
🌍 strengthen cooperation on critical raw materials, security and defence, and research
A relationship built for the long term.
Is this still part of the trade deal?
"Australians may be able to live and work freely in the EU under a two-way mobility scheme put forward by Brussels. The same options would be open to EU citizens looking to move to Australia.
NewsWire understands the scheme was offered as a “sweetener” to get Canberra over the line on an elusive free-trade deal."
@Gina from what I'm reading it's probably not a part of it. There's just some limited stuff about recognizing qualifications in there and if they had agreed on such broad freedom of mobility it would likely be highlighted by the announcements.
