At the presentation of the autumn projection on Wednesday, Minister for Economic Affairs Robert Habeck emphasized the importance of environmental and human rights standards such as those set out in the German Supply Chain Sustainability Act (Lieferkettensorgfaltspflichtengesetz, LkSG). „As citizens of this country or this world, we cannot want products to be produced at the expense of people or the environment and for the companies that comply with the worst standards to have an advantage.“
