    Uruguay and Argentina presidents discuss the future of Mercosur

    Lacalle Pou told Fernandez that his government's intention is that “Mercosur continues to strengthen”, and thus Uruguay “has the need to keep advancing in the accord negotiations”.

    Uruguayan president Luis Alberto Lacalle Pou and his Argentine peer, Alberto Fernandez held a half-hour video conference Tuesday mid-morning to address the recent decision by the current Argentine administration to freeze Mercosur free trade negotiations with potential new partners and instead concentrate efforts in overcoming the COVID-19 pandemic and its sanitary, social, economic and employment consequences.
