Venezuela signed an agreement to become the fifth member of the Mercosur trading block. Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay are the other countries that belong. Venezuela is attractive to the other members given its huge oil reserves but the current administration has not been in favor of free trade agreements and may see this as more of a political than an economic union.
Together the five countries represent about 75 percent of South American GDP.
