The aim of this article is to critically analyze the challenges and prospects of bi-regional cooperation between Europe and Latin America through discourse analysis and the application of critical thinking skills. Key concepts to grasp the argumentation include the significance of diversifying cooperation beyond commodity trade, the potential benefits of collaboration in high technology and environmental protection. Furthermore, it is imperative to consider power dynamics and historical contexts during negotiations. Within this framework, it becomes feasible to conduct discourse analysis of European perspectives regarding the credibility of information sources on economic and non-economic agreements, cultural relevance, audience identification, persuasive style, internal consistency and coherence, institutional position, communication platform, and ultimately, timing and relevance in contemporary contexts for nation development. It is concluded that a holistic view is necessary to achieve a comprehensive understanding of geopolitical dynamics, providing support for the visibility and establishment of more effective agreements for international development and cooperation.
