Markus Buchheit (AfD), ESN-medlem af Europa-Parlamentet, udtaler:<\/p>\n
\u201cDen s\u00e5kaldte Turnberry-aftale var fra begyndelsen en uafbalanceret aftale p\u00e5 Europas bekostning. Mens EU var parat til at afskaffe alle toldsatser p\u00e5 amerikanske industriprodukter, p\u00e5l\u00e6gges europ\u00e6iske eksportvarer nu faste toldsatser. Det er ogs\u00e5 s\u00e6rligt problematisk, at handelstold i stigende grad anvendes som et politisk pressionsmiddel.\u00ab.<\/p>\n
Det er vores sm\u00e5 og mellemstore virksomheder samt borgerne, der rammes h\u00e5rdest. H\u00f8jere toldsatser betyder stigende priser, forstyrrede forsyningsk\u00e6der og risiko for tab af arbejdspladser. Derfor opfordrer vi til, at EU\u2019s forpligtelser i henhold til Turnberry-aftalen suspenderes, s\u00e5 l\u00e6nge USA ikke overholder sine forpligtelser. Frihandel er vigtig, men ikke p\u00e5 bekostning af vores \u00f8konomiske selvbestemmelse og suver\u00e6nitet.<\/p>\n
AfD ser ogs\u00e5 s\u00e6rdeles kritisk p\u00e5 udvidelsen af 50-procent-tolden p\u00e5 st\u00e5l og aluminium til at omfatte en lang r\u00e6kke afledte produkter, hvilket rammer europ\u00e6iske virksomheder h\u00e5rdt. Samtidig blev Turnberry-aftalen indg\u00e5et uden tilstr\u00e6kkelig parlamentarisk kontrol, hvilket er endnu et eksempel p\u00e5 de demokratiske mangler i EU\u2019s handelspolitik.\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
