No more double standards, no more excuses.

Instead of waving flags at one another, or guns and bombs, they worked together for a common interest"

The Net-Zero Industry Act will create the best conditions for those sectors that are crucial for us.

RT @TimmermansEU: With @EUCouncil’s final vote today the EU has taken an important step towards zero-emission mobility.

The direction is clear: in 2035 new cars and vans must have zero emissions. It brings a big contribution to climate neutrality by 2050 and is a key part of the #EUGreenDeal.
