Argentina: Leather exporters at odds with Europe

Write: Bailey [2011-05-20]

Argentina’s leather industry has different views regarding the bilateral trade with the European Union.

Representatives of the beef industry, however, said they were in favour of greater openness, with some even arguing for duty-free access both ways.
