text: It is better to look at the positive requirements to engage in freetrade rather than things like "authoritarian government"as a barrier. For us to engage in free trade the partner should: have a strong a reliable system that embraces the rule of law in place, similar labour and human rights, similar environmental standards and enforcement and similar sector by sector wages in key areas of the economy. These are minimum requirements. And I would trust anybody who starts off suggesting hurry, hurry get on on a deal before it is too late, suggesting Trump is coming, Trump is coming entry our embrace. And I would not trade everything else away just so China will buy lots of oil.
