"It's quite clear that the Democrats are by and large multilateralist," noted Peter Power. "We firmly believe they are genuinely committed to it and it's a question of tapping into that political [anti-farm subsidy] good will."

IMO, the EU negotiators may be right in this case. American farmers are typically conservative, and the Dems in Congress may want to help undermine them. If they were looking for concessions from Unions, the story would take a completly different spin.

I wonder how much the French farmers' subsidies have been reduced?
