The European Union plans to block imports of certain foodstuffs made to different standards in an effort to protect its farmers, echoing U.S. President Donald Trump's reciprocal trade policy, the Financial Times reported on Sunday.
The European Commission will agree next week to explore tougher import limits, the newspaper said, citing three officials it did not name.
Early targets could include U.S. crops such as soybeans grown using pesticides that EU farmers are not allowed to use, the report said.
