Palm oil trade war? ASEAN-EU relations sour over sustainability debate even as UK softens stance

Palm oil trade war? ASEAN-EU relations sour over sustainability debate even as UK softens stance Palm oil and sustainability disagreements have caused ASEAN-EU trade relations to sour even further over the past year with a potential trade war on the line, even as the UK has moved to soften its stance to cement better ASEAN relations post-Brexit. Palm oil has become a major reason for stalled discussions in the ASEAN-EU Strategic Partnership joint working group, where so far not even a meeting agenda has been approved. This is because the EU has been adamant on including the EU Green Deal​, which features its Farm-to-Fork strategy. This is seen as being detrimental to palm oil-producing nations, so ASEAN has refused to accept it.
