Wandeful for Mercosur: We will finally benefit with prosperity and development

German Foreign Minister Johann Wandeful expressed his satisfaction with the provisional application of the European Union trade agreement with the Mercosur countries in Latin America. In a post on X, Mr. Wandeful emphasized that “this is Europe’s time” and noted that the agreement will allow businesses and people on both continents to benefit from more prosperity and development. Specifically for Germany, Johann Wandeful stressed that he will work hard to fully exploit the potential of this historic agreement. The Mercosur agreement is expected to boost trade and investment between the EU and Latin America, creating new opportunities for economic growth and employment. The provisional application of the agreement marks an important step towards deepening economic relations between Europe and Latin America, after years of negotiations. The agreement has already sparked reactions from some circles, who express concerns about the potential environmental and social impacts.
