VOICED : Protesta en Berlin contra TLC Europa EEUU

The video discusses the opposition to free trade agreements being negotiated between the European Union, the United States, and Canada. These agreements aim to remove trade barriers and regulations, but protesters fear they could lead to widespread deregulation and limit government actions. Various political parties, unions, and environmental groups organized a protest, claiming 250,000 participants, though security agencies counted 100,000. The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, under negotiation since 2013, could become the largest of its kind. For more details, viewers are directed to visit www.ISGlobal.org.
