Most economists agree that an international trade agreement that was recently signed will strengthen the economies of those countries participating in it. This benefit is expected to be noticeable even in the short term.

A. In the years before the new trade agreement was signed, major political parties in some of the countries that eventually signed it had opposed it.
B. The new trade agreement will eliminate tariffs that have protected businesses in participating countries from foreign competition.
C. More countries are expected to sign the new trade agreement
