Supermarkets in Brazil belonging to French retail giant Carrefour are facing a boycott over the company's announcement it will not sell meat from Mercosur countries in France. The row is linked to France's opposition to finalizing a European Union trade deal with Mercosur -- covering Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay -- amid protests from French farmers who fear the pact would open the door to unfair competition.
