"The United States remains very disappointed with the tariff level the EU has
adopted with respect to implementation for bananas.
"We believe strongly that the EU's unilateral proposal fails to maintain
market access for MFN banana producers.
"We urge the EU to intensify its negotiations with relevant parties in the
coming weeks so that remaining issues surrounding this longstanding topic can be
resolved in advance of the WTO Ministerial conference in Hong Kong." ###
