BRUSSELS, Nov 26 (Reuters) - The European Commission said it accepted Wednesday's ruling by World Trade Organisation (WTO) judges against the European Union in its long-running "banana war" with the United States and Latin American producers.
"On the Ecuador challenge ... the EU considers the Doha Round to be the right forum to find a resolution, and we are ready to take up the negotiations on a deal on bananas with all suppliers where they were left in July, and settle this long-standing dispute once and for all," the EU executive said in a statement.
