The EU and Latin America’s second-biggest economy in 2018 reached an agreement in principle on updating their joint trade deal, but the coronavirus pandemic and a complex approval process have hampered final ratification in Europe.

“We’re expecting that this year they approve the update of the agreement that we already have with them,” he said.
