France Aims to Partner with Poland to Oppose Mercosur Trade Agreement

Reported 17 days ago

France is seeking to convince Poland to join a coalition against the EU's long-awaited trade deal with Mercosur, due to concerns over its impact on European agriculture. Prime Minister Michel Barnier's cabinet aims to rally support from countries with significant agricultural sectors, as France fears that the pact could undermine local farmers by allowing cheaper South American imports. Despite the ongoing negotiations, securing enough member states to block the deal remains a challenge, especially as countries like Germany support it for economic benefits.
