Tunisia Olive Oil Under EU Scrutiny
The import of Tunisian olive oil into the European Union, which benefits from a preferential quota of up to 56,700 tons annually along with duty exemption, has sparked controversy within the European Parliament. This scrutiny is particularly led by Italian producers who are suffering from declining prices and stockpiles. Italian Members of Parliament have called for a review of the imported quantities over recent years and their impact on the local market. They have also urged the activation of support mechanisms, such as private storage to reduce excess and stabilize prices. This move aims to reassess the impact of the preferential privileges granted to Tunisia. It does not mean an immediate cancellation but reflects political and commercial pressure from Italy. The Tunisian side is concerned about any changes that could harm its olive oil exports to the European market.
