WASHINGTON - The United States and European Union should use common sense to move forward with formal negotiations about a trade agreement, instead of allowing disagreements over agriculture to block progress, a senior German diplomat told Reuters.
“The appeal is directed at both negotiating partners: not to use or abuse this issue of agriculture that is hanging over everything as a blockade,” Beyer said in Washington ahead of meetings with high-ranking U.S. officials from the White House and the U.S. Trade Representative’s office, and lawmakers.
“It looks like an unsolvable situation, but it can be solved through common sense,” Beyer said. “We can at least start the formal process by excluding the topic for now, and then harvest some low-hanging fruit ... Then we’ll see what happens.”
