From our early analysis we are disappointed with the new EU proposal. While in some ways it is a step in the right direction, much more needs to be done.

From our early analysis we are disappointed with the new EU proposal.

We have offered a bold proposal on agriculture. It includes the deepest cuts in domestic subsidies and in tariffs of any proposal on the table. I can tell you that American farmers and their advocates in Congress are keenly aware that our agriculture proposal has real consequences, and would entail real reform.

We're working on finalizing ... the next step, which is to notify Congress on the intent to sign the (Peru) agreement within 90 days.

The United States hopes that differences can be narrowed by looking at concrete data, and moving from a theoretical discussion to real scenarios.

We take no comfort from any offer to postpone the actual payment of the launch aid these countries have already promised to provide. The announcement of their commitment to back the A350 will affect Airbus's financing costs regardless of when they formally write the check.
