MEPs on the European Parliament’s Committee on International Trade (INTA) approved, on Thursday 30 June, a report by Markéta Gregorová (Greens/EFA, Czech Republic) to further liberalise trade between the EU and Moldova for one year. The European Commission proposed a regulation to this effect last 9 June (see EUROPE 12968/26).
The text proposes to improve market access for seven categories of Moldovan products subject to tariff quotas in the EU (plums, table grapes, apples, tomatoes, garlic, cherries and grape juice).
This should double imports into the EU of these products and compensate for the loss of markets for Moldovan producers since the start of the war in Ukraine.
