The European Parliament prioritises trade interests over human rights and sustainable development
EU Trade Agreement with Latin America
The European Parliament has prioritised trade over human rights and sustainable development today in a vote that brings into force two agreements between the European Union and Central America, and Colombia and Peru.
The agreements will do nothing to address human rights abuses in Latin America, and do not take into consideration the asymmetries between the two regions, according to broad group of civil society organisations, including FIAN International.Download the joint press release below.
