European Parliament Ends Tariff Suspension
The European Parliament has approved amendments that remove the rule allowing the temporary suspension of carbon border adjustment measures during exceptional circumstances. This follows the activation of these mechanisms last January, which imposed charges on products such as steel and fertilizers to reduce emissions. Member states and the Parliament plan to negotiate new rules to expand the scope of these tariffs to include additional goods like washing machines and auto parts. Governments insist on maintaining the option to suspend the tariffs if prices rise by more than 50% over six months, a move that could escalate disagreements within the European Union.
