Κούλογλου : Η CETA "τρώει" τη φέτα και τα ευρωπαϊκά ποιοτικά προϊόντα

«H συμφωνία οικονομικής συνεργασίας ΕΕ-Καναδά (CETA) δεν κατοχυρώνει πλήρως τη φέτα, διότι δίνει τη δυνατότητα να υπάρχουν προϊόντα 'τύπου φέτα'», τόνισε ο ευρωβουλευτής του ΣΥΡΙΖΑ, Στέλιος Κούλογλου σε τηλεοπτική του συνέντευξη, προσθέτοντας ότι «προβλέπονται κάποιες μεταβατικές διατάξεις, σύμφωνα με τις οποίες, μετά από κάποιο καιρό μπορεί να ξανασυζητηθεί το θέμα».

Σύμφωνα με τη CETA, καναδικές εταιρείες μπορούν να παράγουν και να κυκλοφορούν στην αγορά της χώρας τους καναδική φέτα. Η CETA υπερψηφίστηκε από 8 Έλληνες ευρωβουλευτές - 5 της Ν.Δ., 2 από το ΠΟΤΑΜΙ και την κ. Καϊλή από το ΠΑΣΟΚ - ενώ καταψηφίστηκε από τους ευρωβουλευτές του ΣΥΡΙΖΑ.

Ο κ. Κούλογλου δήλωσε ότι οι ευρωβουλευτές του ΣΥΡΙΖΑ καταψήφισαν και αντιτέθηκαν στη συμφωνία, καθώς ευνοεί μόνο τις μεγάλες πολυεθνικές, ενώ αντίθετα βλάπτει τις μικρές και μεσαίες επιχειρήσεις, εκθέτοντάς τις σε έναν ανταγωνισμό στον οποίο δεν μπορούν να αντεπεξέλθουν. Η ελληνική φέτα δεν παράγεται από αγελαδινό γάλα, όπως οι απομιμήσεις, και δεν μπορεί να ανταγωνιστεί την απομίμηση καναδέζικης "φέτας".

Το θέμα αφορά και άλλα προϊόντα, ελληνικά αλλά και ευρωπαϊκά: π.χ. οι Γάλλοι οινοπαραγωγοί είναι πάρα πολύ δυσαρεστημένοι και έχουν κάνει πολύ μεγάλες κινητοποιήσεις για να μην περάσει η συμφωνία, το ίδιο και ευρωβουλευτές στις Βρυξέλλες. Η συμφωνία όμως τελικά πέρασε, διότι μεγάλες πολυεθνικές εταιρείες και μόνον αυτές ωφελούνται (π.χ. η BMW ή μια αυτοκινητοβιομηχανία ευνοείται, αν πουλάει τα αυτοκίνητά της φθηνότερα στον Καναδά, λόγω έλλειψης δασμών).

Για την ελληνική φέτα το πρόβλημα δεν είναι οι δασμοί, αλλά η ύπαρξη απομιμήσεων (το γνωστό "λευκό τυρί"), στη συσκευασία των οποίων δημιουργείται η δυνατότητα να αναγράφεται με μεγάλα γράμματα η λέξη "ΦΕΤΑ" και με ψιλά γράμματα "είδος φέτας". Έτσι ο καταναλωτής ξεγελιέται, καθώς παρασύρεται από τον τίτλο και δεν δίνει σημασία στα ψιλά γράμματα. Και όταν φυσικά είναι αρκετά φθηνότερες από την αυθεντική φέτα, ο κόσμος τις προτιμά. Υπάρχει βέβαια και μια μεταβατική ρύθμιση, που μετά από κάποια χρόνια θα εξομαλύνει την κατάσταση και θα αναγνωριστεί και η φέτα, αλλά όχι προς το παρόν.

Εκτός από το θέμα της CETA, o κ. Κούλογλου σχολίασε και την αύξηση φόρου στο τσίπουρο, που ζητείται από την Ευρώπη, λέγοντας ότι είναι ακραίο να πληρώνουν φόρους μικρές οικογενειακές παραγωγές, που φτιάχνουν τσίπουρο για δική τους κατανάλωση και για φίλους. Και στην Ελλάδα υπάρχουν κάποιοι που "καρφώνουν" τέτοια θέματα.

Ο κ. Στέλιος Κούλογλου δεν θεωρεί ότι πρόκειται για ένα "σχέδιο" εναντίον των ελληνικών προϊόντων και brandnames (λάδι, τσίπουρο, κρασί κ.τ.λ.), αλλά αφορά συνολικότερα όλα τα ευρωπαϊκά προϊόντα με γεωγραφική ένδειξη (γαλλικά κρασιά, ιταλικά τυριά, ισπανικά και ιταλικά αλλαντικά κ.τ.λ.) και για το λόγο αυτό έχουν γίνει στις Βρυξέλλες μεγάλες κινητοποιήσεις, εκθέσεις κ.τ.λ.

Όλο αυτό οφείλεται στην τεράστια επιρροή των μεγάλων πολυεθνικών εταιρειών και την πληρώνουν η φέτα και άλλα προϊόντα, γιατί δυστυχώς άλλο είναι η φέτα και άλλο η Mercedes.

F-35s & AI Chips: How MBS Outplayed Washington & Beijing

GVS Deep Dive  Saudi Arabia just secured two of the most powerful assets in modern geopolitics: the U.S. F-35 stealth fighter and tens of thousands of Nvidia’s most advanced AI chips. Washington hoped this would pull Riyadh firmly back into the American orbit. But the outcome is something neither side fully expected: Mohammad bin Salman outplayed both Washington and Beijing — and used the great-power rivalry to his advantage.

Trump Welcomes Syrian Leader & “REFORMED” TERRORIST To White House!

The Jimmy Dore Show   President Donald Trump is planning a White House welcome for Syria’s new president, former al-Qaeda in Iraq leader Ahmed al-Sharaa, who was installed after the overthrow of Bashar al-Assad. Jimmy Dore argues that the U.S. and its allies, including Israel, have long funded extremist groups such as ISIS and al-Qaeda to serve foreign policy interests in the Middle East, so the embrace of al-Sharaa makes sense, even if it might confuse anyone who thought we took seriously the so-called “War on Terror.” He and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger contrast Trump’s willingness to meet with alleged terrorists to his refusal to engage in dialogue with leaders like Venezuela’s Nicolás Maduro, accusing U.S. policy of hypocrisy and imperialism.

Zionists’ LONG HISTORY Of False Flags & STAGED Attacks!

The Jimmy Dore Show   In recent years several alleged anti-Semitic incidents, including graffiti and vandalism, were later revealed to have been staged or “false flag” operations carried out by Jewish perpetrators to create sympathy or shift the public narrative in Israel’s favor. Jimmy Dore presents investigations that revealed hoaxes and uses them to argue that media and political institutions exploit victimhood to silence criticism of Israel. He then expands the discussion to accuse Israeli and Zionist figures of deceit in global politics and misinformation about Gaza. It ends with commentary that the term “anti‑Semitic” has lost meaning due to its politicization and misuse.

A response to misinformation on Nicaragua: it was a coup, not a ‘massacre’

There is so much misinformation in mainstream corporate media about recent events in Nicaragua that it is a pity that Mary Ellsberg’s article for Pulse has added to it with a seemingly leftish critique. Ellsberg claims that recent articles, including from this website, often “ paint a picture of the crisis in Nicaragua that is dangerously misleading. ” Unfortunately, her own article does just that. It looks at the situation entirely from the perspective of those opposing Daniel Ortega’s government while whitewashing their malevolent behavior and downplaying the levels of US support they have relied on. Her piece is an incomplete depiction of what is happening on the ground, ignoring many salient facts that have come to light and which have been outdated by recent events. The following is a brief response to Ellsberg’s main points from someone who lives in Nicaragua and has observed the situation directly and intimately: https://grayzoneproject.com/2018/08/15/a-res...

Varoufakis: IT technologies will overthrow Capitalism

globinfo freexchange The former Greek Minister of Finance, Yanis Varoufakis, ended his recent speech on the Future of Capitalism, at the New School, New York, with some interesting remarks. As he said: The world we live in, is increasingly rudderless, in a constant slow burning recession, while at the very same time, the increasing concentration in the IT sector is creating the new technologies that will do that which the Left has failed to do: overthrow Capitalism. It is really very simple. The moment machines pass the Turing test properly, and you pick up the phone and you do not know whether the person you are talking to is a human being or a machine ˙ the moment we are going to have 3D printers operating as public utilities - you can send any blueprint to it and it can print from one pin to a motorcycle, or to a car - the moment that this happens, we have not just a process of Schumpeterian creative destruction, but we have a process where economies of sc...
