Export subsidy

据报道，WTO最近发现欧盟对食糖生产者的津贴违反了全球贸易条例，从而招致了巴西、泰国和澳大利亚等国的不满。外电有这样的报道：A preliminary ruling by the Geneva-based trade body found that the EU has violated limits on export subsidies, which developing countries say undercut their producers' prices, said Brazilian foreign minister Celso Amorim. export subsidy的意思是“出口补贴”，指一国政府为了降低出口商品的价格，加强其在国际市场上的竞争能力，对出口的商品给予出口商直接或间接的补贴。
