Capri (Naples), October 17 (askanews) – "We are pleased that the government has supported us in this battle to provide relief to Italian businesses. Europe is currently shortsighted; no country can do it alone. I believe that more needs to be done on ETSs." This was stated by Confindustria President Emanuele Orsini, on the sidelines of the 41st meeting of young entrepreneurs. "When we talk about ETSs, we're talking about competitiveness," he said. "China will open 135 coal-fired power plants in 2025-2026.
In Europe, we've reduced emissions by 0,1%, and China's is 32%. Let me get this straight: do we really want to destroy European industry? We're asking for an important reflection. This is why we're calling for the suspension of the ETS. Something needs to be done, but above all, it needs to be suspended. And we can't continue this diatribe. Europe must act as Europe. A united Europe must react to what's happening in the world.
