French Industry is already worried by this reduction of Protection and is not keen on in creasing the disadvantage by accelerating the Kennedy round. In any Case. Paris will demand at least reciprocity from the United states and Britain. France May find an ally in Italy to oppose dec s tariffs Are to come 3.1 percentage Points due to the internal action. Italian Industry May also resist the acceleration. The internal action consists of finally harmonizing former National tariffs on the dec s com Mon external Tariff rate.
