Member countries of South America’s leading trade bloc, Mercosur, have reached an agreement to broaden exemptions to common external tariffs, Argentina’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson announced on Wednesday.
Under the new deal, countries will be allowed to add up to 50 additional tariff exemptions to the existing regimes.
