The European Farmers Coordination (CPE) has issued a press release (see attachment in French) criticising the EU position on agriculture issues.

THE CPE believes EU/US common position on agriculture damages farmers, both in the US and Europe, and in developing countries, benefiting only the agro-alimentary industry and the big distribution networks. In fact, the text received a cool response from other WTO members: click here for more details.
