The mega trade deal that has French farmers in uproar - BBC Business

Quick Summary:

The EU wants a trade deal with four South American nations, but France is strongly opposed.

Farmer Stéphane Gallais was still nearby, watching them."The EU-Mercosur deal is highly detrimental and it would be really symbolic if EU member states didn't ratify it," he said.

Prof Dadush adds that "the deal is an opportunity to push for much needed market-orientated reform in the heavily-subsidised EU agricultural sector, and Mercosur's highly-protected factory sector".
