Chuck Grassley says the U.S. Congress will reject any deal that excludes agriculture
When trade representatives visit me to discuss biotechnology products, often the first thing I do is eat a genetically modified kernel of corn from my farm in New Hartford, Iowa, to show that American biotechnology products are safe for consumers. In Europe, this wouldn’t be possible. As a WTO panel found, the EU unduly delays approvals for U.S. agricultural biotechnology. Remarkably, the delays take place even after EU scientists conclude the products at issue are safe.
Unfortunately, the EU’s insistence on excluding agriculture from trade talks doesn’t come as a surprise. There have been countless tariff and nontariff barriers imposed on American agricultural products over the past two decades. For example, the EU has sought to exclude U.S.
The United States and the EU have enjoyed a special relationship for decades. The EU bloc of 28 member countries is the United States’ largest trading partner with more than $1 trillion in trade in 2017. In fact, it’s the largest bilateral trade and investment relationship in the world. The U.S. and EU economies together account for nearly half of the world’s gross domestic product and for almost one-third of the world’s trade.
