EU Trade Commissioner Maroš Šefčovič emphasizes that EU agricultural and food standards are non-negotiable while seeking a fair trade deal with the US. He addresses criticisms from US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick regarding EU regulations on meat imports and insists that the EU will only accept US products that meet its health standards.
