Paraguay questions EU extraterritoriality with MERCOSUR

Asuncion, Aug 8 (Prensa Latina) Paraguay's Agriculture and Livestock Minister Santiago Bertoni expressed his deep concern about the extraterritorial approaches of the European Union (EU) to the Southern Common Market (MERCOSUR) in environmental matters, the ABC Color newspaper reported on Tuesday.

In statements, Bertoni noted the impossibility of applying EU regional standards to a different production scenario such as MERCOSUR, in the context of the free trade deal between the two sides.

Bertoni further questioned EU´s demands proposing an appendix to the draft trade deal with environmental regulations questioned by productive sectors and ministers of agriculture of MERCOSUR member states.
