Farmers are protesting against the EU-South America trade deal amid a new push for a deal

Several dozen European farmers and tractors have gathered in front of the European Commission to protest against a trade deal between the EU and South America, amid revived optimism that the two sides could reach a deal before the end of the year close. The successful trade agreement between the 27 countries of the European Union and the Mercosur countries (Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay) has been in the making for 25 years and is supposed to create the largest free trade area in the world, but is fiercely opposed by France.
