Exporters of French wines and spirits say they rue Washingtons latest decision to impose trade tariffs on European imports. Federation of French Wines and Spirits Exporters President Antoine Leccia said Thursday he regretted that a country that increased its wine consumption and French wine imports now adopts such measures. Leccia says he hopes negotiations might ease tensions over European Union subsidies for aviation giant Airbus that led the U.S. to adopt the tariffs in retaliation.
