We don't think anyone should be restricting exports of poultry because poultry is perfectly safe. There is no bird flu on poultry farms in Europe except on one turkey farm in France, where all the birds have been slaughtered.

Video looks like reality, it's more immediate, it has a verite surface to it. Film has this liquid kind of surface, feels like something made up.

We're number-crunching to see what we can do within our mandate.
domestic export good help less market meat raise remains sector
We can also raise export subsidies to help the sector to export produce. The more meat is exported, the less remains on the domestic market and that's good for prices.
adapt countries forward leave measures member national states
We don't know how many countries are going to put forward measures and we don't know how much those measures will cost. We didn't want to be too prescriptive, we wanted to leave it to the member states to adapt the measures to the national situation.
