The Parliament approved the Modernised Comprehensive Agreement by 479 votes in favour, 119 against and 65 abstentions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ep-wysiwig_paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">The interim trade agreement, approved by 474 votes in favour, 131 against and 60 abstentions, covers the trade provisions of the Comprehensive Agreement that fall within the exclusive competence of the European Union, such as customs duties, the protection of innovations and traditional European products, and access to Mexican public procurement tenders. It will enable the new trade provisions to be applied sooner, without having to wait for all EU Member States to ratify the Modernised Comprehensive Agreement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ep-wysiwig_paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">The interim trade agreement will expire and be replaced by the Modernised Comprehensive Agreement once the latter enters into full force.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ep-wysiwig_paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Tariff reductions and protection of European agri-food products<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"ep-wysiwig_paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the resolution accompanying the Modernised Comprehensive Agreement, adopted by 388 votes in favour, 161 against and 120 abstentions, MEPs highlight that, under the most ambitious scenario, total EU exports of goods and services could increase by 75 per cent, whilst European businesses could save up to 100 million euros a year in customs duties. They also point out that the agreement removes virtually all remaining tariffs, benefiting European farmers and agri-food exporters in particular, as Mexican tariffs on products such as cheese and pork currently stand at up to 45 per cent.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ep-wysiwig_paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">MEPs also welcome the fact that 568 EU geographical indications for traditional agri-food products will be protected in Mexico, making it illegal to market imitations of European regional food and drink specialities.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ep-wysiwig_paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Rule of law, democratic governance and human rights<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"ep-wysiwig_paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">In an increasingly fragmented geopolitical context, MEPs consider the strategic partnership between the EU and Mexico to be essential for upholding the rules-based international order and promoting multilateralism.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ep-wysiwig_paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">They emphasise that the Modernised Comprehensive Agreement includes a binding commitment to democratic principles, the rule of law and fundamental human rights. The agreement strengthens institutional dialogue on the protection of civil society actors, journalists and human rights defenders. It also strengthens cooperation to reinforce judicial independence, promote good governance and increase transparency. Furthermore, it sets out joint actions to combat corruption, money laundering and organised crime.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ep-wysiwig_paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Public procurement<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"ep-wysiwig_paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">MEPs state that the agreement provides European companies with unprecedented access to public procurement markets in 14 Mexican states, as well as to a greater number of public contracts. They call for efforts to be stepped up to facilitate European companies\u2019 access to public procurement markets in all Mexican states and welcome the fact that contracting authorities may take environmental and social criteria into account throughout the procurement process.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ep-wysiwig_paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Statements<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"ep-wysiwig_paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">You can read the statements by the Chair of the Committee on Foreign Affairs, David McAllister (EPP, Germany); the Chair of the Committee on International Trade, Bernd Lange (S&amp;D, Germany); and the rapporteurs for the Committee on Foreign Affairs, Javi L\u00f3pez (S&amp;D, Spain), and the Committee on International Trade, Borja Gim\u00e9nez Larraz (EPP, Spain).<\/p>\n<p class=\"ep-wysiwig_paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Press conference<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"ep-wysiwig_paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Following the vote, Javi L\u00f3pez and Borja Gim\u00e9nez Larraz will hold a press conference at 14:00 CET.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ep-wysiwig_paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Next steps<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"ep-wysiwig_paragraph\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Following the European Parliament\u2019s approval, the Council can formally conclude the Modernised Comprehensive Agreement.
