All EU nations now back ACTA transparency

http://www.michaelgeist.ca/content/view/4847/125/

“Late last week, the Government of Sweden announced that the European Union was now uniformally seeking ACTA transparency.  The announcement came just days after the Dutch leak that identified the specific countries opposed to a transparent approach.  The revelations appear to have had a significant impact as all European Union countries are now said to support release of the ACTA text.”

This is great for generating awareness around ACTA. With the entire EU supporting transparency on the agreement it be the final push that’s needed to make these negotiations public. I believe ACTA could be the most important trade agreement we’ve seen in decades. We can’t afford to ignore it.
