A resolution relating to unilateral regulations by the European Economic Community.

(Reported to Senate from the Committee on Finance with amendment, S. Rept. 95-426)

Expresses the sense of the Senate that (1) the President should express in firm and forthright terms to the European Communities the United States concern about these regulations on dried prunes and other processed fruits and vegetables and seek negotiations to terminate them as soon as possible; (2) failing negotiations, the President should seek to accelerate consideration of the United States complaint instituted under article XXIII of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade; (3) the President should put the European Communities on notice that the United States intends to exercise its rights under the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade to take retaliatory measures against these restrictive regulations if they are not removed; and (4) the President should seek to obtain agreement from the European Communities that similar restrictive regulations on United States exports of other agricultural products will not be imposed in the future.
