The associations ATEVA and APROVESA express solidarity with Douro winegrowers and follow closely the difficult situation they currently face. Both organizations acknowledge the concerns of the region's producers and show support for measures that may help address their difficulties.
The associations do not contest, in principle, the existence of support when these are deemed necessary for the sector. However, the text suggests that there are conditions or forms of implementation of that support that raise questions.
The statement appears to refer to a request for equal treatment, as the title suggests. This indicates that Douro winegrowers may be receiving or benefiting from support that other regions or sectors do not obtain under the same conditions.
The text ends incompletely, suggesting that there is a critical position from the associations regarding some specific aspect of the support intended for Douro winegrowers, but the complete message is not visible in the excerpt provided.
