The free trade agreement between the European Union and Mercosur countries should be implemented without delay, Paraguay's President Santiago Peña told Euronews. He warned that stalling the agreement would be a "mistake" amid rising geopolitical tensions.
The free trade pact was signed last month by the EU and Mercosur members Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay. However, its full ratification by the EU has been frozen after MEPs referred the agreement to the Court of Justice in Luxembourg.
