http://www.thenews.pl/1/12/Artykul/53998,Polish-minister-calls-for-Europewide-ban-on-GM-crops*Poland's stance on genetically modified crops has been thrown into confusion after its agriculture minister called for a European-wide ban on GMO.
"We are now proposing to completely prohibit not only the cultivation of GM plants, but also imports of feed and food that is genetically modified," Minister Marek Sawicki told TVP public television.
"And not just in Poland," he added.
Sawicki's remarks come just days after he criticized President Bronislaw Komorowski for vetoing a government bill on the registration of GM seeds, which was intended to bring Polish law in line with EU dictates.
