    1. A high-ranking German lawmaker belonging to Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s conservative bloc issued a simple warning to countries holding up the EU-Mercosur trade agreement: Without such deals, Germany won’t be able to pay more into EU coffers.

      “Germany is an export nation, from which, incidentally, all other EU countries also benefit,” Sepp Müller, deputy chairman of Merz’s conservative parliamentary group in the Bundestag, said on Wednesday when asked about the leverage Germany has in ongoing negotiations over the trade deal with the Latin American bloc.

      “If Germany does not return to being a strong export nation, then we will not be able, economically and financially, to bear any further additional burdens for an increasing multi-year financial framework,” he added, referring to the European Commission’s €2 trillion 2028-2034 budget proposal that is now under discussion.

      “Now Europe must decide: Does it want to put the German economy back on the path to growth and thus support and grow the largest net contributor to the European coffers?” he said.
