Carthy calls for stalling of EU-Mercosur trade talks

The Sinn Fein MEP Matt Carthy is calling for a stalling of trade talks between the EU and South American countries. Mr Carthy says the EU Commission is giving too many concessions to the Mercosur countries on the beef trade. A number of MEPs are concerned that the EU Trade Commissioner, Cecilia Malmstrom, is offering tariff rate quotas for beef to the Mercosur countries. Matt Carthy argues such a concession could force some Irish farmers out of business.
