The main aim of the article is the presentation of the problem of the European Union agriculture new protectionism weakening within and outside the WTO. The specific objective was to show the consequences of EU agricultural new protectionism, its mitigation by the WTO to stimulate the development of commodity markets outside the WTO, new perspective aims of CAP as well as issues of sustainable development of European agriculture. Common external EU customs tariff applied selectively against selected goods, may limit the liberalisation of international trade. This is particularly highlighted by trading partners from countries not belonging to this European integration grouping and it is a sign of trade new protectionism. The resistance of the EU to cut tariffs for agricultural products has repeatedly blocked progress in WTO trade negotiations. In addition, developing countries show there is a new protectionism in agriculture justifying at the same time the use of barriers to imports and manufactured goods and services by the EU. Reducing EU selective external tariffs may be an important contribution to a liberal trading system, which provides high profits not only for the EU, but also an effective tool in the fight against global poverty. It is also important to emphasise a high level of subsidisation of the budget of EU agriculture, which seriously restricts the export capacity of the least-developed countries. The situation looks different in wealthier, developing countries, which paradoxically adopt similar measures used by the EU to increase financial subsidisation of own agriculture, which consequently affects the growth of falsification of world trade. In the conclusions of the considerations, in the form of generalisations and applications it is shown that the need to weaken agricultural new protectionism within and outside the WTO is important in the functioning of the CAP. As a result of the necessary reforms, the WTO should continue to stimulate the liberalisation of international trade and also, more than in the past, support the development of third world countries, particularly through aid for trade. The last stage of multilateral trade talks on the liberalisation of international trade within the Doha Round should be paid above all to the problem of reducing the cost of developing countries with their entrance on the world market with industrial goods, agricultural pro- ducts and services. Everything indicates that taken steps of the reforms will continue, which will create favourable conditions enabling the completion of the Doha Round, if there is not further differentiating of negotiating positions and there is not a clear conflict of interest also in the group of developing countries. The European Union should on its own, irrespective of the prospects of trade negotiations in the framework of the WTO, consider what further liberalization movements associated with the CAP would be beneficial for both the union and third countries, especially the least developed ones. As a result of the weakening of the WTO, because of lack of agreement of final Doha Round, there was the increase of importance of bilateral trade agreements as well as other international institutions such as G20. It should be emphasized that in contemporary, multipolar world, agreements and regional ties become more and more important. Furthermore, what is also important from the theoretical point of view, the justifications of practical reasons become weaker and normative solutions become more significant.
