    The European Union on Friday finalized a blockbuster free trade agreement with Brazil, Argentina and three other South American nations in the Mercosur trade alliance

    Are they a secret or something? The amount of words used to say “and three other South American nations” could’ve just been used to say the names of those nations. Wtf kinda journalism is this.

    For the curious, the other nations are Bolivia, Paraguay, and Uruguay.
