PAC: promesses de flexibilité

C'est toujours mieux que rien:

The European Commissioner for agriculture, Mariann Fischer Boel, has indicated a fresh willingness to be flexible in protecting European food production to secure agreement at the World Trade Organisation’s (WTO) Doha Development Round.

She said she would accept a “new blue box definition”, referring to the European Union’s (EU) key set aside agricultural subsidies. Here, she said Brussels could approve subsidy cuts regarding “some of the most trade-distorting measures”.
