El Acuerdo Transatlántico de Comercio e Inversiones: ¿qué es y qué queremos?

The Green party opposes the TTIP due to its secretive negotiation process and the risk that it will lower standards for consumer protection, health, and the environment. They specifically reject the inclusion of the Investor-State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) mechanism and the potential for the agreement to impose global trade standards that undermine the World Trade Organization and the influence of the Global South.

• The Green party criticizes the TTIP negotiations for lacking transparency and democratic control, noting that they are conducted in secret without the influence of national parliaments, the European Parliament, or affected sectors.
• There are concerns that the TTIP will lead to a reduction in regulatory standards, specifically regarding the acceptance of hormone-treated animals, genetically modified seeds and food, and the expansion of fracking.
• The Investor-State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) mechanism is viewed as problematic because it favors corporations over social and ecological policies and could force EU member states and the US to pay compensation for democratic decisions.
• The TTIP is argued to undermine multilateralism by establishing global trade standards that bypass the World Trade Organization (WTO) and limit the ability of Global South countries to influence international trade rules.
