This is an editorial choice. No other party gets this coverage. ~AA

Touchdown in Latin America📍

The finish line of the EU-Mercosur agreement is in sight.

Let’s work, let’s cross it.

We have the chance to create a market of 700 million people.

The largest trade and investment partnership the world has ever seen.

Both regions will benefit.
