#CountdownToCPTPP! What does #CPTPP mean for 🇬🇧 & 🇲🇾 biz? Building supply chain resilience through CPTPP integration. Traders can cumulate content from other CPTPP members to meet rules of origin requirements and take advantage of members’ tariff liberalisation commitments.

#CountdownToCPTPP. What does #CPTPP mean for #UK biz? 99% of UK goods to CPTPP countries will be tariff-free. UK exporters of #chocolate & sugar confectionery will benefit from 0% tariffs on exports of these products to #Malaysia where they currently face tariffs of 10-15%.

Today’s Israeli Knesset bills restricting @UNRWA are totally wrong.    Alongside international partners, the UK has been clear Israel must ensure UNRWA can deliver aid at the speed and scale needed to address the humanitarian emergency in Gaza.

Extremist settler violence continues unchecked in the West Bank. Children witness violence in their schools. Farmers are assaulted in their fields. Today the UK has acted to hold this violence to account. The Israeli government must take serious action now.

There have been over 1,400 incidents of settler violence in the West Bank since October 2023, according to the UN. Today’s sanctions target settler outposts and organisations supporting, inciting, and promoting settler violence. gov.uk/government/new…

Thank you @D_G_Alexander and @tzafrul_aziz for this major milestone! When the UK's #CPTPP membership enters into force in December it will bring to life the first ever free trade agreement between 🇬🇧 and 🇲🇾. Great moment to seize potential for growth in both our countries.

With Malaysia being the latest country to ratify the UK’s accession to CPTPP, it was great to talk about this milestone with Malaysia Minister of Investment, Trade and Industry Senator Tengku Zafrul Abdul Aziz at the ASEAN Economic Ministers Meeting in Laos.
