United States to Host Trans-Pacific Partnership Trade Ministers’ Meeting in Maui
 
The United States will host a meeting of Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) Trade Ministers in Maui, Hawaii from July 28-31, preceded by a meeting of TPP Chief Negotiators from July 24-27.  Since they last met in May, Trade Ministers from the twelve TPP countries have been working continuously. As a result, we have made considerable progress in closing gaps on remaining issues, and we continue to work intensively to address specific issues bilaterally.  The upcoming ministerial provides an important opportunity to build on this progress as we work to conclude the negotiation.
 
NOTE: Later this week, the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative will send out an information packet for working members of the media interested in attending open press events at the TPP Ministers’ meeting.
