| The European Union: Questions & Answers
Archick, Kristin; Mix, Derek E.
Congressional Research Service (CRS) Report, September 25, 2009, online edition, 11p
"The United States and the EU share a large, mutually beneficial trade and investment relationship. The global financial crisis and recession has challenged both sides to forge a common response. The United States and EU have a number of lingering trade disputes, but have led the push to
liberalize world trade, and have sought to reduce non-tariff and regulatory barriers in the transatlantic marketplace. With compatible worldviews on most global issues, the United States and the EU also have a well developed and cooperative political relationship. This report provides a summary overview of these issues, many of which may be of interest to the 111th Congress."
