Romanians want a banon GMOs

According to a national opinion poll (Omnibus system, made by IMAS) from in April, this year, 81,5% of Romanians want the Romanian authorities to ban genetically modified organisms and 74,1% don't want to consume genetically modified organisms. The results of the opinion poll give Romanian authorities a strong argument for an immediate ban on the GM maize MON810 (the only GM crop authorized within the EU).
