The TISA (Trade in Services Agreement) is an unknown commercial agreement, which nobody talks about, negotiated with great secrecy; Among its promoters we find those who advocate the opening of the "service market" to the logic of international capital. Education, health, transportation, telecommunications, financial services, drinking water, the protection of citizens' data do not escape; in short, democracy and public policies. The Agreement on Trade in Services (ACS) within the Trade in Services Agreement (TISA) made up of 50 countries: the U.S., the U.E. Latin America, Asia and others; without their populations or their parliaments expressing their point of view.
Strong international pressure seriously threatens the existence of public services, essential and non-essential, and exacerbates attempts to regulate the financial sector, to the detriment of more than 70% of the world's population.
