In a bid to overcome deadlock on the issue of genetically modified organisms (GMO), the European Commission has proposed that member states rule on their cultivation on their national territories. However the European press remains convinced that Brussels is still planning to push for the introduction of a wide range of new products.
The European Commission intends to authorise more and more genetically modified crops (GMCs), leaving it up to member states to ban them as they see fit. That should satisfy biotech-friendly nations – while allowing those opposed to keep GMCs off their soil.
