Despite Ursula von der Leyen’s repeated assurances, the EPP is increasingly relying on far-right votes.

🗳️ Yesterday’s vote on the Omnibus marked the 13th time the EPP has sided with the far right.

🫣 Imagine waking up in a Europe where you can’t trust the water from your tap, the air you breathe, or the food on your plate. Where no one checks if rules are enforced and disinformation goes unchallenged.

That’s not dystopia - it’s the logical outcome of a trend already visible across Europe.

Until the EU Deforestation law is implemented, the EU has no means to stop meat linked to the violation of Indigenous rights from being sold in the EU.😫 And the EU-Mercosur trade deal will boost precisely this kind of risky trade! ☠️

MEPs must:
👉 push against #EUDR delay
👉 reject EU-Mercosur deal

The final EU-Mercosur deal does nothing to stop free-trade from harming neither small-scale farmers nor Indigenous Peoples threatened by the expansion of agribusiness.

The splitting manoeuvre is an undemocratic hijacking of the long-standing opposition of several EU member states and parliaments.
After over 25 years of discussions, the European Commission will finally adopt the final terms of the pact between the EU and the Mercosur group and send it off to the capitals for approval.

But the deal is still highly divisive.
