EU-Mercosur Agreement: The EU must overcome its trade impasse

• German

It could become the world’s largest free trade area. As a condition for the EU’s unilateral requirements, the Mercosur countries are now demanding cooperation and trade benefits – rightly so, and it will set an example for other agreements, say Bettina Rudloff and Tobias Stoll.

EU-Mercosur Agreement: Partnership for sustainability instead of unilateralism

• German

The final conclusion of the EU-Mercosur Agreement has been pending for more than three years. For some EU states, the sustainability measures do not go far enough. Unilateral EU approaches such as the regulation for deforestation-free supply chains can provide relief – but they carry risks, say Bettina Rudloff and Tobias Stoll.

The Russia-Ukraine War’s Shockwaves in Africa. A Zeitenwende for German Africa Policy?

Two years after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine began, this Working Paper examines repercussions in Africa and on German Africa policy, analysing to what extent they are in continuity with trends that preceded the war and to what extent they represent a break with past patterns. Has the Ukraine war turned out to be a sea change for Africa and German Africa policy, too?

The Ukraine war and food security in Africa: “Meeting the acute needs is not solving the general problem.”

• German

Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine began, we have been witness to a humanitarian catastrophe unfolding in the Black Sea region. At the same time, another one is already looming on the horizon in many African countries. The loss of grain and food imports means that it will be more difficult for Africans to obtain these goods and, above all, pay for them. We spoke to agricultural economist Bettina Rudloff (SWP) about why food security in Africa is often dependent on imports and what options for action exist for African and international actors. She argues that we already have valuable initiatives and tools at our disposal, but we lack a strategic approach. Cooperation with so-called non-traditional humanitarian donors such as China is also an option.
