"The report that is being put to the vote has come about because we are giving in to blackmail by the US and Canadian authorities. While the European Union has legitimately put in place measures to ban imports of hormone-treated meat, the United States and Canada have used this to their advantage to put in place trade retaliation measures which have hit several European agricultural sectors. With this agreement that we are being urged to ratify in the name of returning to normality for the benefit of these sectors, beef production will be put under pressure from competition by substantially increasing import quotas without tariffs. That is why I voted against this text, which gives in to blackmail that is harmful for our agriculture."@en1
