🇪🇺🍷 This week, the CEEV - Comité Vins held its General Assembly in Brussels, a valuable moment to reflect on 2024 and gear up for the challenges and opportunities of 2025. We were honored to have Angelo Di Mambro, agri editor at Euractiv, share his insights on the future of agri-food policy in light of the incoming European Parliament and European Commission. His perspective provided crucial context as we navigate the road ahead. The General Assembly was the occasion to reiterate our call for the conclusion and swiftly ratification of the EU-MERCOSUR Trade Agreement. 🌍 Trade deals like this are essential for enabling EU wine to diversify markets, access new opportunities (Brazilian wine market in this case), and strengthen resilience in these challenging times💪 #TradeAgreements #EUMercosur #Sustainability European Commission
