The European Commission has introduced the EU's trade agreement with South America's Mercosur bloc for approval, easing opposition from France by suggesting limits on farm imports. This large trade accord, reached last December, now requires consent from the European Parliament and a majority of EU member states. Poland remains against the deal, but without enough allies to block it. Proponents argue that the agreement is vital for diversifying trade and countering tariffs imposed by the U.S. amid ongoing protests from European farmers concerned about its implications for local industry and standards.
