Spokesman for Greenpeace Poland, Jacek Winiarski commented on the preside= ntial decision: "Greenpeace is very pleased with the president's veto. We believe that th= is is a step in the right direction and we are pleased that the President= took into account public opposition. Studies say that 67 percent of Pole= s oppose genetically modified food. We are pleased that the President con= sidered the consequences for agriculture, which - if this law came into f= orce - could lose its competitiveness in the European markets. The streng= th of Polish food exports lies in the fact that our food is still healthy= and natural". ................................................................
