Banana tariffs in European Union (EU)
A reference to an extensive (16year) legal conflict between the European Union and US corporations to reduce import tariffs of specific fruit from Latin America: The heads of the corporations celebrated the end of the Banana Tariffs allowing them to increase their profits and lowering the prices of bananas in Europe.
