Ségolène Royal, former French minister of Ecology, Sustainable Development and Ecology, accused Spanish organic products of being fake. The President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, responded this Thursday to what he described as “unfounded criticism” from the former minister.

Ecovalia, the professional association of organic production, has announced that it will report Royal to the State Attorney General's Office and the European Commission. “Have you tried Spanish organic tomatoes? They can't be eaten. They are fake bio. These false bios do not respect the standards set by France,” she assured.
