Vinohradská 12 | What is the Green Deal about?

Green madness. Tragedy. But also a challenge, an opportunity. This is what Czech politicians are saying about the Green Deal. What is it really about and how will this issue drive the European Parliament elections? A topic for Viktor Daňek, deputy director of EUROPEUM Institute, which he addresses in Czech radio podcast Vinohradská 12.
6. May 2024

"Negotiations are being held and are being held until all the prime ministers at the table are in favour. And Andrej Babiš was in favour of it. That's because he understood the clear reality. The Czech Republic really has no alternative but to decarbonise, and neither does Europe. It is not alone in this, by the way, the whole developed world is doing it, even China, the world's biggest polluter, is doing it. It is simply a global trend. It is not that Europe is doing something and others are not, as is often mistakenly said here. It's a reality and so now it's about how to do it."
