A single-speaker YouTube monologue arguing the EU–Mercosur agreement is misleading and harmful. The speaker contends it is not a genuine free-trade deal because many Mercosur countries have very low wages and large informal economies, which will incentivize cheap imports dumping into Europe rather than reciprocal market access. He cites Europe's high energy and regulatory compliance costs as making European production expensive, warns of porous South American borders enabling relabeling (broadening imports beyond Mercosur), criticizes EU climate and agricultural policies as destructive to local farmers and auto industry, offers anecdotal evidence of very low meat prices in Mercosur, and advocates regaining national sovereignty (Frexit) as a partial remedy. The video ends with a book recommendation and the speaker's travel plans.
Good evening, my friends. The free trade agreement with MERCOSUR was signed by the European Union. It will be binding on a huge number of countries in France. Now there are several lies in this agreement. The free trade agreement with mercury just in the title alone, there are already two huge lies that we will detail. So firstly, free trade agreement. It is not a free trade agreement. It is a free trade agreement in theory. It is not a free trade agreement in practice. For a very simple reason. If you look at the countries that are part of mercosur, I am not talking about Paraguay, which is doing more or less well, I am talking about the others. Take any of these countries and you will see that the average salary is extremely low, that a large part of the population lives in poverty, that a very large part of the population lives in the informal economy. We are talking about people who earn €100, €150, €200, €300 per month. In terms of free trade, that means. Because the word free trade suggests that it's a win win situation. Yes, we will allow them to bring things back to sell in Europe. Yes, that's true. But at the same time, European producers will also be able to send their products there, which is not true at all. Because when you live in Europe with high salaries, energy costs that are the highest in the world. I don't know if there is another place in the world where energy costs are higher than in Europe. And that was done on purpose. Look, the Americans, for example, have waged wars. I'm not saying it's good, but they fought wars in the past to ensure their energy supply, to secure their energy supply, because they know, they know, and they are not wrong about that, that without energy you have no country, you have no civilization. What's the difference between a child, a German child, for example, and a child from the hereditary or South Sudan. I'm not talking about skin color. The difference between them is that in the former there are companies called Bosch, Porsche, Igate Metal, BMW, you know, all that. And these industries run on energy. So what I'm trying to say is that with high energy consumption, with very heavy regulations, it's a regulation, I remind you, it's a tax. Regulation is a tax, the law is a tax. Because quite simply they're going to require compliance. Compliance from a business perspective is money that is spent because the state requires it in the form of regulations or other means. So it's like a tax. All of this and many other elements that we can detail make production in Europe extremely expensive. So you're not going to take this European production and sell it in countries where people lived on €300amonth. So clearly there will be no free trade. It's simply these countries that will come and dump their products in Europe. That's the first point, if it's still a big lie. The other lie, the so called agreement with Mercosur. Yes, the Mercosur agreement. Yes. There are countries that are in Mercosur. I think Venezuela is one of them. And all of this is suspended. Yes, yes, I know it's not an agreement with mercosur. Why an agreement in reality with Latin America? Why? Because these Mercure countries do not have a watertight border. These countries, well, now that they have gained a gateway, a green light to go and dump their products in Europe, well, they will also bring some back from their neighbors. Right. Brazil is not part of Mercure, for example. But there's nothing to stop Brazilian producers from putting their products in trucks, bringing them back to Mercosur countries and relabeling them. Right? Well, don't worry, they will have imagination. They are mentally flexible there. And then it will arrive in Europe. So you see, it is still opening up to an entire continent. Another element, another element, Another element. Quite, quite, quite, quite striking in these elements that I am talking about. I have listened to a lot of media and everything, but no one talks about it. So another element that is quite interesting when we talk about the European Union. What is the European Union? Basically it was said that it was about opening customs borders and free trade. Between who? And who? Well, between the countries that are in the European Union. It was never said that the European Union was a free trade system open to the planet. That wasn't the idea. The idea wasn't free trade with the planet. The idea was free trade between the countries of the European Union to allow each of them to use their strengths and everything. And that, and that's what those who believe in the European Union are talking about. I don't believe in it, but I'm telling you that in theory, in theory it's supposed to allow European countries to be able to exchange, trade together, work together, study together, and so, let's say, strengthen their cooperation. It's not about opening up the markets of these countries to countries where 30% or 40% of the population lives off the informal economy. And then there you have it, we bring products from the other side of the world. How many lies have we got to now we've got three less lies. I can give you a fourth. In Europe, we're being lectured Every day, moralized every day. And not only that, it's followed by taxation laws, prohibitions, all of that related to what we call the climate. We're being urged to be careful and we're being urged to literally degrowth today. It doesn't make any sense, does it, in this context? It doesn't make any sense. They even want to ban cars by 2035. We are destroying, as I mentioned earlier, we are destroying very flourishing segments. The booming sectors of the European industry, the automobile industry are being destroyed, aren't they? At the same time, the we are going to the other side of the world. So be careful to get products from other countries. You cross the ocean and change hemispheres and you bring back products from there. I mean, from a purely ecological and energy perspective, it makes no sense. Why do we consume products that come so far away when there are products that are very good quality and that are manufactured closer? Well, one of the reasons is that products that are manufactured nearby have been destroyed because you look at the farmers, farmers, a good portion of them, I think there is in agriculture, there is, or in farming in general, whether it's agriculture or livestock farming, there is about one person every day who dies at the end of their stay. Do you see what I mean? These are people who live in despair because they have been crushed, they are being destroyed. And it's a plan. It's not just a series of bad decisions. The common agricultural policy is there to destroy farmers. Look what it has done with it. And now we are giving them the cost, the final blow, huh? They're the final blow. Bam. We are going to expose them to products that come from countries with which they cannot compete or it's over, it's not possible. So, and I'll add another element, the other thing is that I'm in contact with people all over the world, including people who live in the Mercosur region, by the way, that's what I'm talking about. The borders are very permeable and the free trade agreement won't be with Mercosur, but will actually be between Europe and all of Latin America. But there's something else I wanted to talk to you about. I've been sent pictures of pieces of meat that big, I can assure you a piece of beef, a quarter of beef. And it was selling for ridiculous prices. Like you have a nice huge quarter of beef and you pay €10 for it, you know what I mean? So these are extremely low prices. Now you're going to say, huh? I can already feel you're salivating you're going to say. Well, listen, Aldo, you. You didn't tell us that. Now, if I can buy a big rib of beef for €1, 50 cents and all that, that's great. No, it's not great at all. It's not going to happen to you. I told you. Why? I mean, when you look at Europe, meat is extremely expensive compared to other countries. In the countries of the Mercure, meat costs nothing at all. So we're going to bring it back to sell it in Europe. And I assure you that it's not to lower prices for consumers, but rather to increase the margins of mass retailers. But yes, that's why environmentalists are silent. Huh? We don't hear environmentalists, animal lovers don't hear them. We don't hear climate witnesses. Why? Because in general, money never comes to oppose it. So why do money forces want to bring products from so far away? Well, quite simply, because they have huge margins. Plus, the meat won't deteriorate during transit. It costs nothing to transport in refrigerated containers, and boom, it's gone. It will sell for the same price as French meat, for example, but there will be huge margins on it. There you have it. That's the idea. So what do I want to say? And I want to say the solution, once again, I'm sorry to say it is two things. It's a Frex site, but also a Frex site with a replacement of the liters, because that's pointless. Honestly, between us, Frexit is a solution, let's say necessary but not sufficient. It means if you just imagine you leave Macron in power and then you do Brexit, okay, you haven't done anything, it won't change anything. But you understand, it's very important to start by acquiring or regaining or reconquering your sovereignty. Because when a sovereign country, before signing an agreement, it thinks like this, it's going to say, is it in my interest or not? Well, if it's not in its interest, it's not going to sign it. If it is in its interest, it's going to sign it. Like Germany, for example. Scholz, well, he welcomed the agreement, but it interests him. So for Scholz, it goes in his direction. Okay, why not? So if Germany wasn't part of the European Union, it could have signed an agreement with Mercure or with the Latin American continent. Yes, there's no problem, there's no issue. But on the other hand, France wouldn't have signed if it was free to make its own decisions. Except that here we have decisions that are made at the European Union level and that are taxable and enforceable for everyone. There you go. There's no real choice. There you go. What do you want me to tell you? And it's planned destruction. There you go. My friends, thank you for listening to this video so far, spending this little moment with me. Ah, I recommend my book on swindling, Swindling. And also find me on Aldo Voyage. I'm going to start sharing a little bit about my travels and all that. Next week I'm going to be on a ship, so I'm going to share videos from there, from the ship. I'll give you the link in the description of the video and if you want to see things or if you have questions about the ship, ask me while I'm on it so I can answer you or show you or whatever. Thank you for being loyal to this channel all year. Well, it's not yet. We're not doing the retrospective yet, but here we are towards the end of the year. I wanted to thank you for being with me throughout 2024. See you soon.
