The Japanese are concerned about the US-South Korea free trade agreement, and might seek their own trade deal with the United States. The Japanese are afraid of being “left out in the cold.” I’ve also read speculation that a South Korean trade agreement might make Congress look more favorably upon free trade agreements with Latin America. So why might one free trade agreement lead to others?
hopefully, they are. would provide a good counterweight to all the mercantilist and protectionist clowns
