Brussels – The EU Commission promises to uphold the Paris climate agreement in a new vision for climate and energy.

“We are a credible partner that plays by the rules and we are open for business and cooperation,” states among other things in Thursday’s new strategy launched ahead of the tenth anniversary of the Paris Agreement.

Here, continued international cooperation in the climate area and investment in clean technology and clean energy is promised.

At the same time, the EU Parliament’s Industry and Trade Committee has agreed on its position regarding the phase-out of Russian gas and oil, which it wants to be implemented by January 1, 2027, at the latest. On Monday, EU countries’ energy ministers are expected to try to agree on the same proposal – even though for them it still applies from January 1, 2028.
