EU's Tusk warns Canada trade deal 'could be our last' if it fails


(MENAFN- AFP) European Union president Donald Tusk warned that a troubled Canada-EU trade deal could be the bloc's last ever, if Belgium failed to approve the accord by Friday.

The deal, known as CETA, "could be our last free trade agreement, if we are not able to convince people that we negotiate to protect their interests," Tusk said as he arrived Thursday for a two-day EU summit that would discuss trade issues.
