Spanish olive producers are calling on the European Union (EU) to hit the U.S. with stiff countermeasures over the tariffs imposed by the U.S. on a host of products in the Airbus dispute.
Olive producers face additional duties on black olives as a result of a trade action by the U.S. International Trade Commission to apply anti-subsidy tariffs on the imports.
The Airbus-related action also imposed tariffs on green olives – essentially putting tariffs on all table olive shipments from Spain.
The Spanish table olive producer group Interaceitunas is calling on the European Commission to investigate whether the U.S. unfairly subsidizes its farmers. The group is calling for the matter to be pursued at the WTO.
