What is the difference between a multilateral, bilateral, and regional agreement?
• A multilateral agreement is negotiated between more than two countries that do not make up an entire region. One example of this is the WTO. A bilateral agreement is negotiated between two countries. An example of a bilateral agreement is the U.S.-Chile FTA. A regional agreement is negotiated between all the countries in a region. NAFTA is a regional agreement between the countries of North America -Canada, Mexico, and the United States.
