Obama meeting leaves Key hopeful of TPP deal
Prime Minister John Key is confident the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) can be settled by the end of the year
Barack Obama and Mr Key met at the White House on Saturday morning New Zealand time.
Mr Obama said he'd like to see the TPP completed by the end of the year, and he hopes to have a document that can be made public by the time he meets Mr Key again at the G20 summit in November.
Mr Obama said New Zealand has been a great partner in the TPP process, and he and Mr Key discussed a timeline whereby a document can be finalised in the near future.

MSNBC will talk about the Kochs and Fox will talk about the third Iraq go-around but not a word will be whispered about the TPP, the TTIP or the TISA. Count on it.
