American Trade Policy & Strategy

Here is the link to the text of President Obama's State of the Union address in which he launched the NEI (National Export Initiative).   See page 4 in particular.   From a New Zealand point of view there are concerns that this may lead to more protectionist policies by the US.

The second link is to a video clip featuring the Presidents speech.
