Loopholes in the EU ban on animal testing

[Catherine]

Quote:We can certainly vote with our feet (or more correctly, withdrawing our handbags/wallets), but the problem remains about China insisting on animal testing for products sold in its own country. Only petitions and publicity campaigns will get this stopped.

The situation keeps coming back to animal welfare in China. Until they have proper laws to protect animals there will be trouble in so many ways.
The fact that they insist on animal testing forces the rest of us to be involved in animal testing. I don't even know if boycotting China is possible. So many things have some level of Chinese connection.

I don't know what the UE can do. Most of them can't avoid the Chinese market. Maybe they need to only use ingredients that don't require testing because they are so safe.
