EU-Mercosur Trade Deal Faces Legal Hurdle After Parliament Vote
The European Parliament has voted to refer the EU's free trade agreement with Mercosur nations to the Court of Justice of the European Union for legal review. This decision introduces uncertainty to the future of the agreement, which aims to eliminate tariffs on over 90% of bilateral trade and has garnered both support for its economic benefits and opposition due to policy concerns. The agreement, backed by most EU nations and the European Commission, seeks to facilitate European exports while easing the entry of South American agricultural products into Europe.
