LITHUANIA - The US has opened its market to imports of beef, pork, sheep and goat meat from Lithuania. EU Health and Food Safety Commissioner Andriukaitis, Trade Commissioner Malmström and Agriculture and Rural Development Commissioner Hogan commented on the opening of the US market for Lithuanian meat exports.
"We welcome the United States Department of Agriculture's (USDA) announcement that the US will open its market to exports of beef, pork, sheep and goat meat and derived products from Lithuania. This further opening of the market to another EU Member State is a welcome step and is the outcome of the enhanced technical work carried out between the European Union, Lithuania and the United States department of Agriculture. The proposal reflects the good cooperation between veterinary authorities across the Atlantic. This announcement comes at a time when farmers across the EU face particular difficulties. The Commission is relentlessly working to open up new markets and alleviate these problems by removing existing barriers and increasing export opportunities for European producers.
美国开放立陶宛肉类市场。欧盟卫生和食品安全专员Andriukaitis，农业和农村发展贸易专员霍根(Hogan)为立陶宛肉类出口美国市场开幕式发表评论。
“我们欢迎美国农业部(USDA)宣布美国将开放来自立陶宛的的牛肉、猪肉、绵羊和山羊肉类和肉类产品市场。对另一个欧盟成员国进一步开放市场，也是一项受欢迎的措施，能增强欧盟之间、立陶宛和美国农业部进行技术工作。提案反映了横跨大西洋兽医当局之间的良好合作。在此宣布之际，欧盟各地农民面临着特殊的困难。委员会不断努力开拓新市场，缓解这些问题，通过消除现有壁垒和增加对欧洲生产商的出口机会。”
