World Partnerships was asked to address international trade as a component of US foreign policy. Matthew Nolan, Partner, Arent Fox LLP (Washington, DC), a respected international trade lawyer with decades of experience advising public and private sector clients, engaged this group with an overview of how US trade policy is made, how it works, who influences it, and how it relates to US foreign policy. He contrasted the trade policies of the present and past US administrations as case studies in how foreign markets can manage their trade relationships with the US.
Gary Springer, President of World Partnerships, who has also advised international clients on trade policy and trade disputes during his career, moderated and contributed to the lively discussion. Matthew Nolan also serves as Chair of the World Partnerships Board of Trustees. |
