Germany and Brazil hope for swift finalization of a trade agreement between EU and Mercosur
German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva have both expressed hope that negotiations about a wide-ranging free trade agreement can be finalized in the near future. Scholz and Lula say they support the trade deal of the 27-member European Union with Mercosur — comprised of Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay. Scholz said after a meeting of senior officials from both countries that “Germany is behind the intention to conclude such an agreement.” Lula also vowed he would fight for the deal. The two leaders also signed a bilateral agreement to be partners in the fight against hate speech and disinformation.

South African leader accuses Israel of war crimes. Putin and Xi strike more cautious note at meeting
South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has accused Israel of war crimes and genocide in Gaza during a virtual meeting of leaders of developing countries including Russia’s Vladimir Putin and China’s Xi Jinping. Ramaphosa also condemned Hamas for its attack on Israeli civilians that sparked the conflict and said both sides were guilty of violating international law. Also joining the meeting were leaders and officials from BRICS members Brazil and India, as well as from Saudi Arabia, Argentina, Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran and the United Arab Emirates, which are set to join the bloc in January. Putin said there is a “humanitarian catastrophe” unfolding in Gaza and blamed it on what he called failed diplomacy by the United States.
