Progressive but no progress:
- No fossil fuels phase out
- No decarbonisation of energy systems
- Creative calculation with CCS instead of mitigation
- Disregard of ESABCC recommendations
- No 2035 target
- Not equitable and fair share
- Not in line with the Pars Agreement
The EU is leading on climate action.
We should stay the course, creating opportunities for European industry to thrive in new global markets for clean technology.
Today, we recommended a 2040 climate target and set out a number of enabling policy conditions to achieve it ↓
Western Balkans decarbonisation is urgent. But the EU enlargement package is still sending mixed signals on coal and gas. Clearer directions are needed for a sustainable future. 🧵Let’s look at the country specifics 👇
🇪🇺EU will enlarge in near future. President Metsola's idea to have 🇺🇦&🇲🇩MEPs as observers at the Parliament is a right step. My colleagues & I have been pushing for this for some time. The same opportunity must be given to other candidates in the WBalkans.

Mijn diepste medeleven aan de nabestaanden van de laffe moordaanslag in Brussel
Ik volg de ontwikkelingen samen met ministers van Justitie en Binnenlandse Zaken op vanuit nationaal crisiscentrum
We volgen de situatie en willen de inwoners van Brussel vragen om waakzaam te zijn.
With @BernieSanders on democracy, corporate greed, equality, equity, social and climate justice...
Amazing turnout of young and vibrant audience at the magnificent @BozarBrussels Henry Le Boeuf Hall.

1/🧵 ‼️ Together with @Eko_svest we have filed three formal complaints about the planned Greece - North Macedonia fossil gas pipeline. The 67-km North Macedonian section would further lock the country into fossil fuels and price fluctuations when it should be decarbonising.

🇪🇺 Anticipation is high as President @vonderleyen addresses the European Parliament today in the #SOTEU debate. Litmus test for the vision and actions for #WesternBalkans. Tweeting on insights on accelerating cooperation and a credible pathway to integration. #Enlargement
Working on the policy level and policy files on how to not only bring closer, but include the #WesternBalkans and #Accession countries. #Policy reviews on enlargement, among other focus on the budget. Time to really level the playing field between #EU and #WB. #SOTEU
