UNITED STATES POSITIVE ON TRADE WITH NZ: SUTTON
23 June 2000

Ambassador Charlene Barshefsky, United States Trade Representative "We have been very well-received here. We couldn't have expected better than we've got." Mr Sutton said the possibility of reviving work on P5 - a trade agreement between New Zealand, the United States, Australia, Singapore, and Chile - was raised during his meeting with United States Trade Representative Charlene Barshefsky. "There certainly seems to be some potential for that… We knew it hadn't been going anywhere lately but the possibility is still there."
