Anne-Marie Trevelyan – 2022 Comments on New Trade Envoys

The comments made by Anne-Marie Trevelyan, the Secretary of State for International Trade, on 26 May 2022.

These new Trade Envoys will play vital role in promoting Global Britain across the world, driving economic growth, and encouraging inward investment across the whole of the UK.

From the UK’s accession to CPTPP, to our ambitions for an enhanced trade deal with South Korea and green trade agenda, there is huge potential for our new Trade Envoys to strengthen and grow our trading relationships between the UK and Canada, South Korea and Turkey.
