FANTASTIC NEWS

The European Parliament has voted to send the #EUMercosur trade deal to the European Court of Justice for a legal review

This dodgy deal must be stopped – it would be highly undemocratic for the EU Commission and national governments to push for ratification

145 MEPs tabled a motion to refer the EU-Mercosur deal to the Court of Justice of the EU

The EPP wants to block that motion at a key meeting TONIGHT

Why? If the deal is legal, let the courts say so

What’s the EPP afraid of?

Is it because they think the court will find an issue?

Take action: Stop the climate-wrecking EU-Mercosur Trade Deal The EU-Mercosur trade agreement will benefit a handful of big corporations while driving deforestation, the climate crisis and exposing small-scale farmers to unfair competition. We can still STOP it!

It's clear that EU-Mercosur deal is climate-wrecking.

But legally speaking, it also has many odd elements, including:
🔪Splitting vs Commission's negotiations mandate
🥶Risk of freezing environmental legislations
🌎Alignment with Paris Agreement

It is not a done deal. Take action to #StopEUMercosur 👇

Last week, we got more details about the US-EU trade deal... and it does not look good.

CSDDD, CSDR, CBAM, EUDR, gas, nuclear, cars, meat &more - all in there, not in a positive way.

This is just another example of the EU’s willingness to give up on the climate and energy transition commitments.

The European Commission went full on radio silence on the EU-Mercosur trade deal.

That's probably because there is a lack of consensus over the deal.

Maybe they also realised how bad it is.
