미국 농무부 산하 식품안전검사국 홈페이지에 올라있는 미국의 대만 수출조건 원문입니다.
월령제한, 부위제한이 완전히 철폐되었는데… 일시적으로 민간자발적인 잠정조치로 30개월 미만 살코기와 뼈 있는 쇠고기를 QSA 인증을 통해 수출하겠다는 내용입니다. 대만은 캐나다산의 경우 미국에서 도축하기 100일 전에 들여오는 경우 뼈없는 쇠고기만을 허용한다고 합니다.
처음 미-대만 간 합의에는 30개월 미만 자발적 QSA 내용이 포함되지 않았으나 대만 내부의 반발에 부딛혀 마잉주 정부가 새롭게 추가한 것 같고… 내장 수입 금지 부분은 미국쪽 수출조건에는 그 내용이 들어있지 않습니다. 대만에서 민간 수입업자들의 자율결의로 수입을 하지 않기로 했는지 확인을 해보아야 할 것 같습니다. 대만이 내장을 수입하지 않기로 했다면 한국보다도 더 강화된 조건이라고 생각합니다.

美쇠고기 대만서 찬밥 신세
4대 대형마트 판매않기로..주요 레스토랑들 동참

(타이베이=연합뉴스) 이상민 특파원 = 대만에서 매출액이 가장 많은 4대 대형 마트들과 주요 레스토랑 체인들이 미국산 뼈있는 쇠고기를 팔지 않기로 했다.
까르푸, 코스트코, 다룬파(大潤發), 아미마이(愛買) 등 대만의 4대 마트들은 뼈있는 미국 쇠고기를 매장에서 판매할 계획이 없다고 밝혔다고 대만 신문들이 22일 보도했다.
대만 최대 레스토랑 체인 왕핀(王品)의 타이성이(戴勝益) 이사장도 대중의 우려와 불안이 해소되기 전에는 뼈있는 미국 쇠고기를 사용하지 않고 소비자의 안전과 건강을 고려해 아무리 일러도 1년 후에나 사용 여부를 검토할 것이라고 밝혔다.
대중적 인기가 높은 갈비 레스토랑 체인인 구이쭈스자(貴族世家)도 뼈 있는 쇠고기, 간 쇠고기(ground beef) 등 논란 있는 미국 쇠고기 부위는 안전에 대한 우려가 해소되기 전에는 사용하지 않을 것이라고 말했다.
뼈있는 쇠고기 등은 다른 부위들에 비해 상대적으로 더 위험한 것으로 알려져 있으나 대만 정부가 지난달 수입 통제를 완화해 커다란 반발에 사고 있다. 이 때문에 마잉주(馬英九) 총통은 모라꼿 태풍 늑장대응에 이어 취임 후 1년반만에 두번째 위기를 맞고 있다.
12월10일께 뼈있는 미국 쇠고기 1차 선적분이 대만에 도착할 예정인 가운데 미국 쇠고기 수입 재협상을 요구하는 국민투표 청원에 13만2천여명이 이미 서명, 청원에 필요한 1차 서명자 수를 넘겼다.
