Brak wyłącznej kompetencji UE do zawierania umów o wolnym handlu „nowej generacji”
Lack of the EU Exclusive Competence to Conclude „New Generation” Free Trade Agreements

Summary/Abstract: European Union in tends to enhance its economic ties with the third countries through the Free Trade Agreements. With the FTA’s with Canada (CETA), United States (TTIP) and Singapore, EU wanted to upgrade the level of mutual cooperation, introducing so called “new generation” of FTA’s. Such agreements are intended to broadly facilitate bilateral trade between the stake holders, significantly exceeding issues of purely customs nature. The process has been slowed down due to the unclear division ofcompetences between the EU and its Member States. In a longer perspective it may occur that the European Union will have to amend the desired economic relations creation model, to engage in a broader way all of theEU Member States into the decision-making process. For example it canbe derived from the recent opinion of the Court of Justice of the EU on the FTA with Singapore.
