Poland to uphold veto on EU-Russia negotiations unless meat ban lifted - PM reiterates

Poland will stick to its veto of negotiations over a new EU-Russia partnership and cooperation agreement, unless Kremlin lifts its ban on imports of Polish food, Prime Minister Jaroslaw Kaczynski reiterated Tuesday. "We are full of goodwill, but we will uphold our veto [if the ban isn't lifted]," Kaczynski said in an interview for public radio PR1.

Poland vetoed the European Commission's negotiating mandate for a partnership and cooperation agreement with Russia to replace the one that expires at the end of November 2007.
