Oscypek and champagne: obstacles to TTIP deal?

Sławek Szefs reports that despite substantial progress to date, the group of some 100 experts from both sides of the Atlantic are still facing a long list of topics and problems related to them.

For instance, could regional food products create insurmountable obstacles for the TTIP agreement?

"This pertains to products with geographic tags like champagne, or cheese such as the Polish highlander 'oscypek’ or the famous parmesan,” says Wojciech Talko, policy coordinator at the Directorate General for Trade at the European Commission.

“The US has an entirely different system of protecting agro-related products,” Talko told Polish Radio.
