| Summary: | Forests are essential for global sustainability, serving as critical reservoirs of terrestrial biodiversity and playing a key role in mitigating climate change. The EU Regulation 2023/1115 (EUDR) aims to address deforestation and environmental degradation by restricting the trade of commodities linked to these issues, showcasing the EU's extraterritorial regulatory influence. This article analyzes the potential impact of the EUDR on Brazil, the EU’s largest supplier of soy, coffee, and cattle, shedding light on the challenges and opportunities it poses for fostering sustainable trade relations. It delves into the concept of "embedded deforestation," the importance of forest preservation for sustainable development, and the mechanisms within the EUDR designed to advance global sustainability. Additionally, it examines the regulation's potential limitations and critiques, offering a comprehensive view of its implications and challenges.
