"I voted for this report on the EU-US agreement because it enables the US blockade on European exports such as mineral water, pork, canned and prepared fruits, chocolate, juices, oats, chewing gum, jams, Roquefort cheese and fresh truffles to be lifted. A very important aspect of this report is that it encourages the production of European beef for export, thereby contributing significantly to the agricultural sector whilst protecting consumers, since imports of US beef will be increased without recourse to beef produced using hormones. The United States gave their support to completely suspending the sanctions against the EU in May 2011, provided that we honour our side of the agreement in a timely manner. If the European Union does not reciprocally implement the agreement, we run the risk of additional retaliatory measures from the United States, which will have to be compensated for damages incurred by the failure to comply with World Trade Organisation rules."@en1
