○ domestic suppliers or businesses

Explanation:

Question 1

• Group of Seven (G7) is about major economies' cooperation, not from GATT.
• League of Nations was a pre - WWII international organization, unrelated to GATT.
• OPEC is an oil - producing countries' organization, not from GATT.
• GATT (General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade) led to the creation of the World Trade Organization (WTO).

• The European Union has multiple official languages, and USMCA (United States - Mexico - Canada Agreement) doesn't focus on promoting English as the trade language.
• USMCA is a trade agreement, not moving towards a political union like the EU's development, but the EU is more than just a trade union.
• USMCA (a free - trade agreement) and the EU (a regional integration bloc with free - trade elements) both have member nations that reduce tariffs for intra - group trade.
• The EU has expanded in the past, and USMCA is a new agreement, not decreasing in size.

• Domestic suppliers or businesses face competition from foreign goods in free trade, as foreign products may be cheaper or of better quality, threatening their market share.
• Domestic consumers benefit from free trade as they get more choices and potentially lower prices.
• Local governments are not directly threatened by international competition in the same way as businesses; they deal with local governance issues.
• Federal governments regulate trade and may adjust policies, but are not directly threatened by international competition like domestic businesses.
