Which other countries would they be? We already trade with a majority of the countries that signed up to RCEP. I don't think we have limited our trade options by choice. We can probably replace the wines and beefs in time, but I can't see a readily replacement market for the dirt. I'm hearing we are bypassing the beef ban by routing it through Vietnam
. There is just no other market.
India and Indonesia are probably a decade or two away from getting a majority of their population into the middle to upper income bracket. Its just reality.
Talking doesn't necessarily mean grovelling. The EU and parts of asia has shown you can have a sensible dialogue.
