The implementation of the trade pact between the Latin American country and the EU would streamline bilateral commercial exchange, said Dominican Foreign Minister Carlos Morales.

The official said the foreign ministry would meet the association of industries to request its views on the terms of the accord to be signed in mid-October this year.

Morales voiced interest to keep preferential access of some domestic products, including banana, rice, coffee, cocoa and sugar, to European markets on terms of egalitarian treatment and fair trade.
