Authorities in Argentina, Brazil and Paraguay warned the Uruguayan government on Wednesday that they would “take action” if it continued separate trade talks outside of the four countries’ MERCOSUR regional integration process.

In a statement released by the Argentine Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the three countries indicated that “in view of the actions of the Government of Uruguay aimed at individually negotiating trade agreements with a tariff aspect (…), the three countries reserve the right to take possible measures to protect their interests in the legal and commercial spheres.

So they tried to warn the president of Uruguay, Louis Lacalle Pou, and they indicated that the notification comes before “Uruguay’s possible submission of a petition to accede to the Comprehensive and Progressive Trans-Pacific Partnership Treaty.”

The government of Uruguay announced on November 18 that it will submit a request this Thursday for the country to join the aforementioned treaty as part of its “international implementation strategy developed by the current administration.”

Comprehensive treaty D Trans-Pacific Partnership Progressive aims to promote greater regional economic integration and cooperation among its members and was signed in 2018. It includes countries such as Australia, Canada, Malaysia, Peru, Singapore, New Zealand D Vietnamamong others.

Lacalle Pou He has repeatedly stated that international law supports this commitment and calls for “promoting the flexibility of MERCOSUR” in order to “open up to the world”.

In fact, despite warnings from neighboring countries, Lacalle Pou insisted this Wednesday that Uruguay will continue to trade outside of margin MERCOSUR because the country has “full right” to do so.

“We are going to do this (…) We feel that we have every right to do this, since we understand, although we do not share, the claims of the three countries,” the President of Uruguay said, according to the local newspaper Stressed.

Same way, Lacalle Pou insisted that Uruguay’s decisions are supported by other recent measures by some member countries MERCOSUR and which have not been adopted by consensus, such as tariffs between Brazil and Argentina.
