Uniunea Europeană suspendă importurile de carne din Brazilia, în aşteptarea unor garanţii privind respectarea normelor sanitare
The EU will suspend imports of poultry and beef from Brazil due to insufficient guarantees on sanitary standards. This includes eggs and honey. The European Commission has criticized Brazil for not meeting antibiotic use regulations. An ongoing audit may allow poultry exports to resume soon, but beef exports could face longer delays. Brazil was previously removed from the EU's list of compliant countries regarding antibiotic use. The EU aims to demonstrate vigilance after facing criticism over a trade agreement with Mercosur countries.
