Brussels, 22 June 2022 – Despite some acknowledgment of industry’s challenges in addressing the green transition, the outcome of today’s plenary vote of the European Parliament will require further work in the next steps of the legislative process to align the provisions to the deployment of the EU steel industry’s ambitious low carbon projects.

The EU must speed up renewables and renewable hydrogen to secure industry energy supplies and keep up the pace with green industry projects, say WindEurope and EUROFER

S&Ds: The polluter pays, no matter where they pollute – a Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism Fit for 55

S&D - Socialists and Democrats

Thanks to the S&D Group’s relentless efforts, the European Parliament is set to approve tomorrow the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM). This will come across as a crucial tool to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions by at least 55% by 2030 - compared to 1990 levels - as set out in the Fit for 55 package, in compliance with the European Climate Law’s aim of making Europe the first carbon-neutral continent by 2050.

This will be a crucial tool to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions by at least 55% by 2030 - compared to 1990 levels - as set out in the Fit for 55 package, in line with the European Climate Law’s aim of making Europe the first climate-neutral continent by 2050.

Bernd Lange on WTO outcome: There's life in the old dog yet

S&D - Socialists and Democrats

EU finance ministers today again failed to reach a consensus on transposing the global deal on a minimum effective tax rate for multinationals into European legislation. Just after Poland withdrew its longstanding veto, it is now Hungary blocking the agreement. This marks a third failed attempt to pass this crucial legislation and is a heavy blow to tax justice. This also again calls into question the viability of unanimity voting in taxation matters, underlined the S&Ds.
