Franco-Germans win concessions on CAP Review

APART from a few commas, the CAP Review is as agreed at a recent meeting in Berlin between the French and Germans, said French Farm Minister Herve Gaymard.

He said the accord was a result of the special relationship between the two countries, which struck an informal agreement in Berlin on how to proceed in the negotiations.

"In reality it is the Franco-German couple which has allowed the EU move forward and come out of this with our heads held high" said Gaymard.
