On 2 July 2001 the European Union welcomed the United States' decision of 1 July 2001 to suspend the increased customs duties it imposed on certain EU exports in 1999 as a result of a long-running dispute over bananas. The decision means that increased (100% ad valorem) duties have now gone down to the level of ordinary customs duties on imports of EU products including bath oils, car batteries, bedlinen, handbags and wallets. |
