Europe@feddit.org•Mercosur Delayed - What Next? (Opinion)English
12·3 days agoThis trade deal is specifically with these 4 full members. Saying some south American countries is not a misrepresentation, also not an insult. In fact the EU already has trade deals with 2 other SA countries, Colombia and Chile.
I’m in favor of the deal, just like the author of the video. You’re getting annoyed about an insignificant detail and missing the bigger points he made.

Europe@feddit.org•Mercosur Delayed - What Next? (Opinion)English
16·3 days ago4 countries in SA vs 27 in Europe. The point being, many people think this deal is with the whole SA.
Interestingly EU deals with Chile and Colombia were approved without any difficulty.
I do believe the fact people are unfamiliar with Mercosur as an organization and often imagine it bigger than it is made it easier to increase the opposition. Shouting “no trade with Brazil” sounds more aggressive and xenophobic than shouting “stop Mercosur”.

Europe@feddit.org•Mercosur Delayed - What Next? (Opinion)English
16·3 days agoThis deal is most likely killed at this point, Mercosur won’t wait 25 more years. Mercosur clearly gave preference to the EU, but patience has limits. They’ll now sign deals instead with China and India, without any of those safeguards that this deal had. Europe is not the center of the world. For a party supposedly worried with climate change they have an incredibly provintial and eurocentric view of the planet.

Europe@feddit.org•Far-left and far-right join forces in the European Parliament to vote against free-trade Mercosur agreementEnglish
11·4 days agoSorry for not wasting too much time answering someone with ready insults and the usual cassette, but I find it boring… I’m a lefty with an own mind, I’m not impressed by your microwaves notes, nor insults. And yes, PCP is the main Russian puppet in Portugal, CH is only in recruitment phase still.

12·5 days agoAre you talking about the same green party? Because the only party green in its name is PEV “Os Verdes” the eternal coalition partner of PCP, the communist party.

Europe@feddit.org•Far-left and far-right join forces in the European Parliament to vote against free-trade Mercosur agreementEnglish
1510·5 days agoThe far left did vote with them, some parties on the far left also do present themselves as greens, like the Portuguese green party (although they don’t have MEPs anymore).
But when the supposed moderate Greens side with Russian puppets on the far-left and far-right to sabotage a deal with Global South countries, I guess we can’t call them moderate any longer… Aggressively defending protectionism to European farmers and wasting an opportunity to improve the environmental standards in South American farming industry. This at a moment when Europe desperately needs to strengthen relations with middle powers like itself. This is extremist behavior.

5·6 days agoTrue. I’d be up for that, but honestly more for a real social network for friends and family, like Facebook once was, than for a debate forum like Twitter. That demand could maybe endure that it would remain a friends only network…

Fair enough. But also still plenty of avenues that look like highways
