EXPLAINED: Why Is the EU–Mercosur Deal Fueling Fury in Rural France?

Описание: French farmers staged coordinated protests across the country on Wednesday, blocking roads with tractors and gathering outside government buildings and the European Parliament to oppose state-led livestock culling policies and the EU–Mercosur trade deal. Farmers accuse authorities of enforcing mass slaughter of herds under disease control protocols, even in vaccinated livestock, warning the measures are economically and psychologically devastating rural communities. The protests have also reignited opposition to the EU trade agreement with South American nations, which farmers say will expose French agriculture to unfair competition. Paris has sought to delay the deal, but demonstrators warn policies decided in Brussels and government offices are pushing French farming toward collapse. #frenchfarmers,#farmersprotest,#franceprotests,#eumerosur,#eucrisis,#agriculturecrisis,#livestockculling,#brussels,#eupolitics,#ruralfrance,#worldnews,#breakingnews,#farmersrevolt #tnworld #timesnowworld #worldnews #internationalnews #timesnews #newsworld
