SHEEP HERDED INTO A SUPERMARKET PARKING LOT IN AUBAGNE FRANCE TODAY SATURDAY NOVEMBER 20, 2025 TO PROTEST THE EU-MERCOSUR TRADE DEAL

On Thursday evening European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen cancelled today's planned signing in Brazil of a trade deal between the European Union and five South American MERCOSUR countries (Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay).

The deal will now be signed next month.

It's a deal that farmers in Europe see as a direct threat to their future livelihood.

Several months ago US ranchers bristled when President Donald Trump proposed importing beef from Argentina to lower US prices.

Von der Leyen's announcement came hours after thousands of protesting farmers appeared with a fleet of tractors in Brussels to protest as the European Union held a summit meeting there...

French farmers have been protesting the MERCOSUR trade deal for months with various demonstrations that sometimes include the dumping of manure and trash at government buildings.

Protests continued in France this week hundreds of protest actions involving thousands of people.

Mainstream media considering the impact of the demonstrations on 'holiday travel' in France...
