The demonstration, organized by the agricultural union Confederation Paysanne, began at the Esplanade des Invalides and ended at the foot of the Eiffel Tower. Protesters carried banners, chanted slogans, and drove tractors in a show of opposition to the EU-Mercosur agreement which, first negotiated in 2019, has faced growing opposition from European farmers and environmental groups, who argue it could harm domestic producers and accelerate deforestation in the Amazon. The EU-Mercosur deal with Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, and Uruguay would create the world's largest free trade zone for over 700 million consumers, potentially increasing EU exports by up to 39% or €49 billion ($57 billion) and supporting more than 440,000 jobs by slashing high tariffs on cars, machinery, pharmaceuticals, and agri-food products. It includes protections for 344 EU geographical indications, limits on sensitive agricultural imports such as beef and poultry, and robust safeguards against import surges, supplemented by a proposed legal act to address farmers' concerns.
