How are FTAs implemented?
For the implementation of FTA's, the relevant parties within government institutions will gather to discuss and draw up details of the trade policies being suggested. After the relevant discussions, the necessary legislation can be drawn up to help enforce the final guidelines that were agreed to.
FTAs may come with certain conditions
Even though FTA's come with many benefits to the countries involved, this does not prevent conflict from erupting between them. Arguments centring around FTA's may include the taxation of imports and exports, or the trade of illicit goods such as the smuggling of drugs or weaponry, causing tensions to erupt between the countries involved.
