. (EUNN) The European Union has levied more trade sanctions on the United States in retaliation for its controversial antidumping measures. The move added another $9.1 million in trade sanctions, bringing the total amount of EU penalties against the US to $36.9 million. The EU was able to levy the trade sanctions against the US with the backing of the World Trade Organization which ruled in 2002 that the Byrd Amendment, the United States government's policy to let American companies collect revenues from successful antidumping lawsuits against foreign companies, was illegal.

Brussels, Feb. 23 - As U.S. President George W. Bush made
his first tour of Europe after winning his second term in office,
dozens of European parliamentarians called on Europe and the United
States to develop a unified strategy to stop the Islamic Republic
in its pursuit of nuclear weapons.
Referring to the European countries that negotiated the deal with Iran, 'They do believe that Iran has got nuclear ambitions, as do we, as do many around the world. 'This is a very serious matter. The world knows it's a serious matter and we're working together to solve this matter.' Under a pact reached by the European countries and Iran last week, Iran is due to suspend all uranium enrichment, while it negotiates a deal in which it would receive trade incentives and peaceful nuclear technology.
Nfl Betting Spread The parliamentarians who included two vice-Presidents of the European Parliament announced their collective opinion in today's edition of the International Herald Tribune.
Iran interprets the freeze narrowly, while the Europeans and the US are calling for a suspension of all uranium enrichment processes. Under Iran's international treaty obligations, it is allowed to enrich uranium, so any suspension has to be voluntary and cannot be compelled by outsiders. Halting the programme, however, is the fundamental policy aim since that is the best way to ensure that Tehran does not create a nuclear bomb.
Advanced Commodity Spread "The prospects of nuclear weapons in the hands of Iran's fundamentalist theocratic regime is a clear threat to regional and global peace and security. Yet, no one wants to see another military conflict in this tormented region. President George W. Bush's visit to Europe is a chance for tans-Atlantic consensus on the need to support democratic change in Iran. We have been encouraged by the words of President Bush to the Iranian people in his State of the Union address, when he said: 'As you stand for your own liberty, America stands with you'," parts of their declaration read.

Iran has reiterated that it will not bow to U.S. and European demands that it abandon uranium enrichment, stressing that its nuclear capability is "not for sale". Tehran stood defiant on the nuclear issue as U.S. President George W. Bush started a European tour which will include discussions on Iran and other foreign policy issues.
Stock Spread Trading The parliamentarians went on to voice their opposition to the EU's appeasement of the Iranian regime and called for the removal of the main Iranian opposition group, the People's Mojahedin, from the Europe's terror list, citing President Bush's recent remarks concerning the role of the Iranian opposition in revealing Iran's clandestine nuclear program to the international community.
Online Spread Betting Those making the call included Alejo Vidal-Quadras, First vice-President of the European Parliament, Edward McMillan-Scott, vice-President of the EP, Paulo Casaca, President of the EP delegation to Nato, and Struan Stevenson, co-Chair of the Friends of a Free Iran parliamentary group.
