USA bedriver febril äggjakt i Europa.
The US is on an egg hunt in Europe to ease prices at home
https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/us-egg-hunt-europe-ease-prices-home-120247797The U.S. government is on a global egg hunt, seeking exports from countries in Europe and elsewhere to ease a severe shortage that has caused egg prices at grocery stores to hit record highs.
Germany, Italy, Poland and Sweden are among the nations the U.S. Department of Agriculture approached to address the shortage brought on by a bird flu outbreak, according to European industry groups.
But supplying Americans with eggs would be complicated for foreign producers — and not because of political tensions over the myriad import tariffs President Donald Trump has imposed or threatened to impose on his nation's top trading partners.
Even if they were eager to share, European countries don’t have many surplus eggs because of their own avian flu outbreaks and the growing domestic demand ahead of Easter.
USA vill köpa ägg – Sverige säger nej
USA har drabbats kraftigt av fågelinfluensa och vill därför köpa ägg från Sverige.
Men Sverige säger nej, rapporterar Sveriges Radio Ekot.
Anledningen är att påsken närmar sig.
– Under påsken fördubblar vi nästan vår äggkonsumtion så att just nu vill vi definitivt ha kvar våra svenska ägg i Sverige, säger Marie Lönneskog Hogstadius, verksamhetsledare på Svenska Ägg.
