Brazil contests EU planned suspension on “animal” product imports

Brazil is contesting an EU decision to suspend exports of "animal" origin products from the country linked to restrictions on anti-microbial substances. The decision was taken by the European Commission's Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed, which approved an update to the list of authorised countries. Brazil's government is seeking to reverse the decision and reinstate its status on the list, ensuring the continued flow of these products to the European market.
