EU efforts to rebuild Ukraine will focus heavily on decarbonisation and other green agenda goals, senior Brussels officials have said.
The European Commission has confirmed that EU efforts to rebuild Ukraine will focus heavily on the blocs green agenda goals, such as decarbonisation.
Many climate change-obsessed officials in the European Union have frequently cited Russias war in Ukraine as posing an opportunity to reduce carbon emissions, with German climate change minister Robert Habeck even previously saying that the Volodymyr Zelensky administrations real problem was its use of coal, as opposed to the fact that a foreign army is occupying large swathes of the country.
More subtly echoing this provocative statement, EU commissioner Kadri Simson confirmed that efforts to aid Ukraine both during and after the war will focus heavily on the blocs climate goals, with Brussels keen to push decarbonisation efforts in the invaded nation.
