Austrian presidency falls short to stop GMO approvals

Austria's attempt at putting the thorny issue of genetically modified crops high on the EU agenda during its presidency failed as EU environment ministers only "exchanged views" at their last meeting before Finland takes over the rotating leadership.
Austria is one of the staunchest opponents of GM technology in the EU and is sticking to its own ban on modified plants within its territory.
