On Tuesday 3 February, during the week of the 8th round of TTIP negotiations, a roundtable discussion, held in the European Parliament, brought together speakers from the European Commission, Corporate Europe Observatory, SciencePo Paris and Repsol for an in-depth discussion on investment protection in TTIP. 

The constructive discussion with the diverse audience from the European Parliament and stakeholders made clear why this is one of the most debated topics of TTIP at the moment. Both MEPs Zalba (ESP, EPP) and Mosca (IT, S&D) stressed the importance of a TTIP agreement and the need for an investment chapter that sets the global standard. By hosting this roundtable discussion, both groups contributed to this important debate and demonstrated that they take into account and want to address the concerns of EU stakeholders.
