PARIS, Rajab 12, 1437, Apr 19, 2016, SPA -- France has threatened to block further negotiations on a new EU-U.S. free trade deal if there is no significant progress in coming months, Reuters cited French Trade Minister Matthias Fekl as saying on Tuesday. "I indicated in September that if there was no progress, we should end the negotiations. That option is still on the table," Fekl said on the sidelines of a conference about the proposed Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP). "France will not accept a watered-down accord," he said. -- SPA 21:42 LOCAL TIME 18:42 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
