Brazilian Economy Minister Paulo Guedes said Thursday (Aug 15) that, should the opposition win the presidential elections in Argentina and show resistance to the economic opening of Mercosur, Brazil will leave the bloc.
Brazil’s Foreign Minister Aloysio Nunes said Wednesday (Jun. 13) that the free-trade deal between Mercosur and the European Union (EU) may be concluded before the general elections in Brazil in October this year.
Mercosur and the European Union (EU) are “very close” to signing a free-trade agreement. João Cravinho, EU Ambassador to Brazil, said he believes the deal should be forged in June or July this year.
