Mercosur : Regional strategy paper 2007-2013

This Regional Strategy Paper (RSP), the second for Mercosur, provides a strategic framework for EC cooperation with Mercosur for the period 2007-2013. The RSP has been prepared following a consultation process involving Mercosur member states and civil society actors. EC-Mercosur relations are based on a Framework Cooperation Agreement signed in 1995, which aims at preparing an interregional association between the EU and Mercosur. This Regional Strategy is focused entirely on supporting regional integration, preparing for the implementation of the future Association Agreement and trade-related assistance. This is in addition to the cooperation funds earmarked to support purely national objectives as set out in the Country Strategy Papers (CSPs) for the four Mercosur countries.
