PIIE mourns the loss of Gary Clyde Hufbauer, a pillar of the Peterson Institute for International Economics & a beloved colleague & friend to many.
As one of the Institute's cornerstone senior fellows, he helped C. Fred Bergsten make PIIE what it became from its earliest days & embodied so much of the spirit of the Institute—intellectual engagement, passion to understand & improve the policy world, independence, collegiality, & a deep commitment to bringing economic research to bear on the world's most pressing policy challenges.
His passing is an enormous loss to our community & to the field of international economics. Gary leaves behind a monumental legacy, not only in his scholarship & influence on economic policy, but also in our institution which he helped build & the many lives he touched.
May his memory be a blessing for his family. He certainly was a blessing to all of us at PIIE.

Nordens styrka ligger i samarbetet.
Nordic Compass-partnernätverkets toppmöte i Göteborg är ett bra exempel på vårt nära samarbete. De nordiska länderna delar gemensamma värderingar och intressen.

The day the EU, as we know it today, was born. 🇪🇺
On 1 November 1993, the Maastricht Treaty entered into force, officially establishing the European Union, formerly the European Communities.
Happy birthday to us! 💙

Great news!
Today @wto 10th Global Aid for Trade Review, Barbados & Australia helped to deliver something special: a multilaterally agreed declaration on Aid for Trade: Partnerships for Trade & Development. The first multilaterally agreed Dec on AfT in 20 years. It was tough but rewarding!

The label is less relevant than the content. EU &Canada has a strong relationship that can deepen further and focus on even more concrete cooperation. A good place to start is for all EU countries to ratify CETA, the free trade agreement in force provisionally for almost 10 yrs
Canada is not & will not become a candidate country to the European Union, nor does it want to be. But there are still strong prospects for deepening EU-Canada ties.

Kul för oss frankofiler och Europavänner med ny podd!
Finns det nån svensk europé efter Karl Wistrand? Bör Kanada gå med i EU? Vad har den första kulinariska romanen att göra med upploppen i Frankrike?
Idag lanserar @fores_sverige och @timbro ny podd där jag och @CVReimers djupdyker i kontinentens händelser: open.spotify.com/episode/0MjQld…

Dear Serbia, you have made your voice heard!
After nearly two years of protests for democracy, the rule of law and the fight against corruption, Serbians turned out in historic numbers.
Congratulations to the Student List on your victory!
These are the very values at the heart of our European Union.
A new chapter can begin for Serbia. The door to the EU is open, and we are ready to move forward together.

When my book came out, everyone asked if Trump was going to change the direction of US trade policy. "Too soon to say" I'd say because of status quo bias. Now Trump made "tariff" one of the most hated words in politics, says @greg_ip wsj.com/economy/trade/… via @WSJ (1/2)

NEW: @MalmstromEU & @inumanak write that there are strong prospects for deepening EU-Canada ties—but taking those ties to new heights will require addressing old objectives that remain unfulfilled.

Europe wants growth, innovation and strategic autonomy. But can it become more competitive without becoming more dependent on the US? @maxhofmann speaks with @MalmstromEU and @K_Steinecke on this week's #BerlinBriefing from the @Bgdialogue youtube.com/watch?v=VsFgDP…
