Egypt-European Union, Economics, 8/11/1998

The embassies of the European Union countries in Egypt, have received an official statement from the Egyptian Businessmen's Organization, clarifying the organization's attitude toward European trade practices with it.

The statement aroused vast reactions, and a communications campaign has begun to define the situation and prevent it from becoming further aggravated.

The statement condemned the accusations from the EU that Egypt is dumping its products into European textiles markets and the measures, implemented in response to the accusations, which obstruct Egyptian exports to Europe.

It also denounced the technical obstacles imposed by the European Commission against Egyptian agricultural exports, saying that the Egyptian Businessmen's Organization will call for enhancing trade cooperation with countries that do not put obstacles before Egyptian exports.

The organizations will also coordinate with other countries that suffered from the same practices by the European union countries.
