星期四法国的生态、可持续发展和能源部长Ségolène Royal和农业部长Stéphane Le Foll发表联合声明，宣布法国已经决定向欧盟要求强烈退出转基因作物种植。
法国已经决定请欧盟不要在法国国土推广已经批准或有待批准的9种转基因玉米(1 GM Maize variety – MON9810).
声明总结说，“这一决定遵从Stéphane Le Foll 支持的2014年6月2日决议，即禁止在法国种植转基因玉米。新欧洲框架中非常重要的进步是允许成员国请求该国的国土退出已经获欧盟批准或有待批准的转基因作物种植，法国在推动这一进步中起到了领导作用。”
法国现在已经正式加入了希腊、拉特维亚，请求退出转基因种植。德国和苏格兰已经表明他们有同样的意愿。
德国农业部长Christian Schmidt已经于8月通知德国各州，他将用3月通过的欧盟新法律来禁绝转基因作物。同一个月早些时候，苏格兰政府宣布他们将采取同样的措施，保护苏格兰的洁净和绿色。在德国发表声明时，Newcastle 大学的生态农业教授Carlo Leifert说，他坚信苏格兰政府禁绝转基因作物是正确的，并且“苏格兰成为明确的禁转的地区很可能会给苏格兰带来商业上的利益。”

In a joint statement Thursday by the Minister of Ecology, Sustainable Development and Energy, Ségolène Royal, and the Minister of Agriculture, Stéphane Le Foll, it was announced that France has decided to ask the European Commission for a strong opt-out from growing genetically modified (GM) crops.
France has decided to ask the European Commission to exclude its national territory from the release of 9 GM maize varieties already authorized (1 GM Maize variety – MON9810) or awaiting authorization by the EU.
The statement concluded; “This decision is in line with the Act of June 2, 2014 banning the cultivation of GM maize in the country supported by Stéphane Le Foll. It is part of the very important progress made by the new European framework on the implementation of GMO cultivation in which France played a leading role . This directive makes it possible for Member States to request the exclusion of their territorial scope of existing authorizations or of those under consideration.”
France has now officially joined Greece and Latvia in asking for an opt-out from growing GM crops. Germany and Scotland have also made it clear that they will follow the same path.
German Agriculture Minister Christian Schmidt informed German states in August of his intention to use a new EU law, passed in March, to ban the use of GM crops. This followed the Scottish Government’s announcement earlier in the same month that they will take similar action to protect Scotland’s clean, green status.
The German announcement also came as Professor Carlo Leifert, Professor of Ecological Agriculture at Newcastle University, said that he strongly believes the Scottish Government ban on GM crops is right and that “there are likely to be significant commercial benefits from Scotland being clearly recognized as a GM-free region”.
