This successful stretch of the MERCOSUR-EU negotiations has been possible thanks to the extraordinary quality of the teamwork in the Brazilian government, which coordinated the process for MERCOSUR.
This is a great day. After a final stretch of almost 2 yrs of negotiations, MERCOSUR & the EU are delivering a strategic, balanced & ambitious landmark agreement. Texts will be out shortly---stay tuned for many innovative solutions on sustainable development & other areas.
Finland warmly welcomes the conclusion of negotiations between the #EU and #Mercosur, a very important and valued partner. Diversification of trade and investment relations is key to competitiveness and economic security.
It‘s happening! After 25 years of negotiations, the EU is about to sign its mega trade & political partnership deal with South America‘s Mercosur bloc.
Contrary to what critics say, I‘d argue it‘s not only geopolitically crucial but also good for farmers & environment. Thread 1/
Some aspects to keep in sight: Will US be willing to pursue such coalition building strat for industrial p’cies (as it has been foing for xp controls & investment screening)? How will market actors react to suc strategy?
Great article @AaronFriedberg pointing to the current (counterintuitive?) Chinese export strategy, esp. aiming at developing economies. I addressed some of the points raised in my 2023 “Decoupling by discrimination” https://t.co/7wttdJjm6d 1/2 https://t.co/Gfr8appPoa

Graças ao lixo que é a administração do aero Guarulhos @gruairportsp possivelmente perderei o velório da minha mãe. Levaram 40 minutos para colocar uma escada na saída do avião—p/ variar não há fingers. Incompetência por todo lugar, como essas malas expostas à chuva. Vergonha!
How are firms adapting to an increasing geoeconomic global context? In preparation for the very first issue of @Law_Geoecon we met at the University of Tokyo for a great 2-day conference. Many thanks to @AkiraIgata@jhillebrandpohl@VictorAFerguson for making it happen!
And that's a wrap! International symposium with a genuine "dream team" of economic security experts from around the world ended in a huge success. Many thanks to all those who helped make this possible, as well as those who joined us in-person and contributed to the discussions.
Looking forward to this conference in Tokyo (June 13-14). Many thanks to @AkiraIgata, @jhillebrandpohl@VictorAFerguson for leading the efforts in putting it together. Glad to see the 1st conference by @Law_Geoecon & on such a great topic: states & firms in a geoeconomic context

Really proud to be a part of this team! Thanks to @jhillebrandpohl for his tireless efforts in making this project a reality. An interdisciplinary platform to debate the future of trade regulation is more than necessary to make sense of the challenges facing trade law.
