France Pushes to Limit 'Made in Europe' to EU Members, Excluding UK

France urged EU industry ministers in Brussels on 24 September to define 'Made in Europe' as the 27 EU members only, leaving out Britain. Minister Sébastien Martin said European taxpayers' money should back European workers and factories. The draft law would give European goods an edge against Chinese subsidies (government financial help) and is still being negotiated.
