REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- Indonesian Agriculture Minister Andi Amran Sulaiman will evaluate the export of palm oil and palm oil-based biodiesel to Europe in response to the European Parliament's allegations which harms the national palm oil industry.

"We will evaluate a cooperation agreement that we have signed (with Europe)," he said on Wednesday.

The Agriculture Ministry is not afraid of the European Union's decision to ban Indonesian palm oil from circulating in the European market as Europe is not the only market for Indonesian palm oil, he stated.

The minister noted that he will ask Indonesian palm oil exporters to stop exporting the commodity to Europe.
