The European Union?s executive on Wednesday proposed starting free trade talks with Japan - despite protestations from carmakers that a recent trade deal with South Korea was already crippling an ailing industry. ?There are a number of problems that have to be resolved in the car market ? but we have to sort this out independently of free trade agreements?, EU Trade Commissioner Karel De Gucht said on Wednesday. A free trade deal with Japan - which has a strong car industry - could boost the EU?s economy by 1 percentage point and create 400,000 new jobs, the commissioner said, predicting that it would take about five years to conclude negotiations.
EU leaders are expected to decide whether to let the commission embark on the exercise at a summit in October. But several European carmakers - struggling with falling sales and large-scale redundancy plans - are questioning whether opening up the EU?s markets to Asian rivals is a good idea.
