BRATISLAVA, Sept. 22 (Xinhua) -- The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) is still being negotiated, but political statements of certain EU leaders regarding suspension of negotiations can't be ignored, said Slovak MEP Ivan Stefanec here on Thursday.
According to Stefanec, scrapping TTIP negotiations between the United States and the European Union (EU) is a matter of internal policy in France and partly in Germany. Their attitude is also influenced by the upcoming presidential election in the United States.
"(U.S.) President Barack Obama wanted to finish the negotiations during his electoral term. However, the important thing is to have a good contract, and not a contract that needs to be quickly signed in a few months," said Stefanec, referring to the U.S. presidential election set to take place in November.
"The largest trade agreement in the EU's history should be well prepared, as it's important for the EU and the world as a whole," stressed Stefanec, adding that mainly trade standards should be set well.
There have already been 14 rounds of negotiations on TTIP so far, but the EU and the U.S. representatives haven't agreed on any of its 27 chapters.
"Regarding the abolition of customs duties on goods and services, TTIP is completed on 97 percent. A great deal of progress has been reached in this matter," pointed out the Slovak MEP.
"The question of regulatory standards, which is different in the EU and the USA, as well as the issue of resolving disputes still remain open," he added.
Both points have been criticised mainly from the part of the EU, as many European companies, professional associations and NGOs are afraid of easier access of American companies to the stricter EU market.
However, Stefanec doesn't share these concerns, as the agreement will have to go through the approving procedure in the European Parliament (EP) and in national parliaments of the EU member states.
Meanwhile, an informal meeting of EU trade ministers is set to take place in Bratislava on Sept. 22-23.
French Foreign Trade Minister Matthias Fekl earlier this month said that, as he sees the current round of negotiations on TTIP as a failure, he will demand on behalf of France the suspension of negotiations at the informal meeting in Bratislava.

LONDON, June 4 (Xinhua) -- The so-called Islamic State (IS) has claimed responsibility for Saturday's London attack, British media reported Sunday.
BBC reported on its website that the group's news outlet Amaq Cheap Los Angeles Lakers Jerseys , on the messaging app Telegram, said "a security unit of Islamic State fighters carried out the London attacks yesterday".
Meanwhile, The Telegraph reported that an IS group propaganda outlet exhorted would-be jihadists to carry out vehicle and knife attacks on civilians just hours before three terrorists went on a rampage in central London.
According to the report, the message sent out on an encrypted messaging app Cheap Los Angeles Clippers Jerseys , urging attackers to "gain benefit from Ramadan" and "kill the civilians of the Crusaders. Run over them by vehicles".
British police said 12 people have been arrested so far after the attack, which left seven people dead and 48 injured. Among the wounded, 21 people are in critical condition.
BEIJING, June 15 (Xinhua) -- As of May 31 Cheap Indiana Pacers Jerseys , China had a total of 2,914 qualified institutions of higher education, according to a list released by the Ministry of Education (MOE) Thursday.
Among the institutions, 2 Cheap Houston Rockets Jerseys ,631 are colleges and universities, 265 of which are independent colleges, while 283 are adult higher education schools.
The list came at a time when high school graduates are completing their college applications after this year's national college entrance exam, which took place on June 7 and 8.
The MOE also warned students of fake colleges that have been popping up across China in recent years.
These colleges and institutions do not have the official qualifications to enroll students or run schools Cheap Golden State Warriors Jerseys , and some of them are involved in online fraud. The low cost and high benefit of setting up and running fake colleges has made them difficult to eradicate.
The MOE has called on students and their families to stick to the official list of qualified institutions of higher education.
