You can buy Brazillian and Argentinian beef already in the EU and their cows are not fed on hormone or their chickens washed with chlorine. The quantities are at the moment rather small (8000t of Argentinian beef per annum for example).
EU laws will stop some substandard food products through health and safety standards but in essence, if it wants to sell cars to mercosur (essentially Brazil and Argentina), it has to accept fair competition and let in a lot more beef and chickens. The issue is the deal will wipe out a large number of smaller producers because of much lower production cost in mercosur countries.
Exactly, it's to "wipe out a large number of smaller producers" in the EU. And sell Volkswagens there, coz 3 vw Factories in DE have shut due to No demand for EV's. I vonder von der vhy? :)

As soon as Russians troops are gatheredm in large numbers, Zelensky desperately tried to offer concessions such as never join NATO, leave Crimea alone and implement 2014 agreements in full.
That is completely untrue, you are doing what the Americans do, invent news. Zelensky did not offer to never join NATO before the war started, or make other concessions. Instead he maintained his defiance to the last in his speeches.

Shortly after the war started, the Russian attack nearing Kiev and Ukraine's infrastructure already being destroyed by missiles, he said in a speech broadcast here "We may have to agree to never joining NATO".

That was his first concession on NATO, as I've previously posted, including at the time.
