FRANCE ERUPTS: Sheep Block Roads In Protest Against EU–Mercosur Trade Deal | Times Now World

Thousands of French farmers staged a protest in Aubagne on Friday against the EU-Mercosur trade agreement, which has been delayed for one month. Demonstrators blocked roads with tractors, drove sheep through streets, and burned tyres while waving French flags. Farmers warn the deal, which reduces tariffs between the EU and South American nations, could undermine local agriculture and increase competition among European producers. The protests coincide with wider unrest over a mass cattle cull to contain lumpy skin disease, with unions calling for better crisis management and vaccination programs.
