Paying for decarbonisation of the Global South is therefore in the self interest of even a small coalition of advanced countries and the EU. This COP must deliver an agreement on a meaningful new goal for North-South climate finance..@AKleinnijenhuis

A well-argued case for common European defense procurement by Guntram Wolff, who is rejoining Bruegel as senior fellow on March 1. Welcome back, Guntram!
