Trump is helping Australia, Japan and China to form a regional trading block.
“The original architecture was to enable other countries to join,” Australian Trade Minister Steven Ciobo told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation on Tuesday. “Certainly I know that Indonesia has expressed interest and there would be scope for China if we are able to reformulate it.”
Japan has led the push for the partnership, which also includes Brunei, Canada, Chile, Malaysia, Mexico, Peru and Vietnam. “There is no change to our view that free trade is the source of economic growth,” Japanese Economy Minister Nobuteru Ishihara told reporters.

Вам, наверное, незачем. Нет, честно, вас никто не просит разделить их (или мою) целевую функцию. Просто я привожу пример того, как от заключения или незаключения TPP можно хотеть чего-то еще, кроме экономического роста, рабочих мест или оваций с трибун.
