"13Th Five-Year": Promoting The Bilateral And Multilateral Trade Process With "One Belt And One Road"

Facing the new trend of changes in world trade patterns and rules, China needs to implement a broader and more proactive FTA strategy as an important starting point for building "one belt and one road" to form a new round.

The commanding heights.

Accelerating the formation of a new pattern of opening up with a focus on trade in services and actively promoting the two-way opening of the service industry are both the focus of the market-oriented reform of "two opening" and the key to forming an external environment conducive to economic pformation and upgrading.

1. Take the construction of the free trade area network as the goal and speed up the construction of "one belt and one road".

(1) take the construction of the free trade area network as an important goal.

First, we should set up more bilateral and multilateral free trade zones with the emphasis on the "one belt and one road" countries, and promote bilateral and multilateral free trade.

Two, we should focus on the countries and regions of the "one belt and one way" strategic node, and open up the "free trade" road with "one belt and one road", and gradually form a regional market with mutual benefits.

The three is to build trade and investment rules of mutual benefit and common development, and to inject more Chinese elements into the new system of international economic and trade rules.

(2) focusing on trade in services

To improve the opening level of service trade as the focus of speeding up the implementation of the strategy of free trade area, we will form a "one belt and one road" service market.

In the context of shrinking global demand and the market becoming the most scarce resource, we should take advantage of the big market of the 1 billion 300 million person service industry to promote two-way, reciprocal and reciprocal opening of the service market, promote liberalization and facilitation of trade in services, and give full play to the two-way opening of service industry to adjust the structure, pfer mode and promote employment.

(3) relying on infrastructure interconnection

Accelerate "

"Seamless link" of key infrastructure such as oil and gas pipeline, power grid and information network along the line, through the "one way" on land, sea and air trade flow, logistics, stream of people, information flow channel, focus on building the economic corridor linking China and free trade partners, raising the level of trade logistics facilitation.

2. Major breakthrough in 2020 striving for China EU Free Trade Area

(1) the demand for Sino EU trade is huge and huge.

As the two largest economy in the world, China and Europe account for only about 1.5% of the total trade volume in the world compared to the 1/3 of the total economic volume of China and the EU.

After nearly 38 years of reform and opening up, China has accumulated the world's leading technology and experience in some industries, manufacturing sectors and infrastructure areas, but at present, the development of the service industry, especially the producer services industry, is still "short board".

The European Union has entered the post industrialization era. The characteristics of economic service are very outstanding, especially in the life service industry, such as electronic technology, aviation, information and communication technology, life science and technology, energy and environment, and other life service industries.

The difference between the economic structure of China and Europe means the huge trade space between China and Europe.

(2) the greatest potential of trade between China and Europe is trade in services.

Trade in services has become the main growth point of trade between China and Europe.

By 2020, if China's total trade in services reaches US $1 trillion and 200 billion and the proportion of EU's service trade from 13.2% in 2013 to 20%, the total trade in services will reach 2000-2200 billion euros.

(3) start Sino EU FTA negotiations as soon as possible.

Under the complicated changes of world trade patterns and rules, the establishment of China Europe free trade zone is a key step for China to gradually build a FTA network based on the periphery and radiation along the "one belt along the way" and the global oriented free trade area network. It has the overall significance, win-win and strategic significance.

In 13th Five-Year, China EU investment agreement negotiations and Sino EU FTA negotiations should be pursued simultaneously.

It is suggested that the central European government entrust a think tank to carry out the feasibility study of China EU free trade area and encourage all kinds of think tanks to conduct extensive cooperation and exchanges around China EU free trade area.

(4) the key is to break the barriers of service trade between China and Europe.

First, we should promote the liberalization and facilitation of trade in services between China and Europe, and gradually break down barriers to service, trade, technology and so on, and establish consensus on reducing subsidies, government procurement, technology licensing and environmental standards.

The two is to focus on trade in services and build Sino EU Trade Park and industrial cooperation park. First, we will test the system and policy of Sino EU free trade, and actively explore the docking of China EU trade and investment rules and standards.

The three is to accelerate two-way opening of China EU service market.

In the field of health care, design and research, pension services, vocational education and other service markets, the market access for EU enterprises is relaxed.

To push the EU to reduce export control to China in the field of service trade.

Deepening the opening and cooperation of financial services in China and Europe.

(1) build an upgraded version of China ASEAN Free Trade Area under the guidance of "quasi EU"

The "10+1" free trade zone has become a new model for developing emerging economies and developing countries to jointly build mutually beneficial, cooperative and win-win trade and investment rules.

In 13th Five-Year, we can learn from the EU model and accelerate the realization of the barrier free circulation and infrastructure interconnection between China and ASEAN 10 countries under the premise of equal consultation among all countries. This will lay an important foundation for the formation of regional economic integration pattern characterized by free trade, common market and monetary cooperation.

(2) focusing on trade in services

China's ASEAN Free Trade Agreement will be gradually introduced into China's Hongkong and Macao Special Economic Zone's commitments on opening trade in services. On the basis of shortening the pition period, we will strive to make the ratio of zero duty tariff to trade volume and trade volume to reach 95%-100%; gradually expand the coverage of the FTA negotiations, and reach a consensus on new topics such as e-commerce, competition policy, government procurement and environment, so as to lay an important foundation for the construction of the upgraded version of the 2 edition.

(3) copy the successful experience of "10+1" upgrade to other FTA construction.

Referring to the upgraded version of the China ASEAN Free Trade Area and the practice of the China South Korea free trade area, we should actively promote the negotiations on the "10+3" free trade area; establish a free trade area with the Eurasian Economic Union to facilitate trade facilitation; conduct joint research as soon as possible, focus on free trade, set up a BRIC closer economic partnership framework, promote the BRICs free trade area process, and enhance the BRIC influence on the global trade and investment rules.
