Farmers Descend On Warsaw To Protest Mercosur Deal

WARSAW, POLAND - JANUARY 9: Farmers hold Polish flags and shout slogans as they rally in protest against the impending ratification of the EU-Mercosur Partnership Agreement on January 9, 2026 in Warsaw, Poland. The proposed trans-Atlantic free-trade agreement between the EU and the Mercosur bloc, which includes Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, and Uruguay, has been in negotiation for more than 25 years. Farmers across the EU have staged protests in opposition to the deal over fears of unfair competition from Latin American imports. A decisive vote on the Mercosur deal is expected to take place today in Brussels. (Footage by Omar Marques/Getty Images)
