Fit for 55 climate package on the home s • Table.Briefings

„December will be the month of compromise. And everything will happen around Dec. 15, we will have a political showdown,“ says Pieter de Pous. He is head of the Fossil Fuel Transition Program at think tank E3G.

As a result, negotiations would have to be completed by the end of the Czech presidency.
