一位知情人士周一表示，欧盟要求做出进一步让步，以批准德国化学公司拜耳收购美国农业巨头孟山都的提议。 在 Yahoo.com 上报道.
Brussels launched an in-depth investigation in August into the $66 billion (56-billion-euro) deal, which would create the world’s largest integrated pesticides and seeds company.
欧盟委员会是欧盟 28 国强大的反垄断监管机构，表示担心它可能会减少农民关键产品的竞争。
Brussels is also under pressure by environmentalists who fear that the deal would give too much power to the world’s leading manufacturers of GMOs and the controversial weedkiller glyphosate.
