Due to a growing backlash from trading partners and conservative lawmakers, the European Commission maintains it is working to implement new legislation that will ban from January the import of products linked to deforestation overseas.<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite growing pressure from governments, trading partners and conservative MEPs, the European Commission insisted today that it remains focused on preparing for a ban from next year on the import of goods that may be linked to the destruction of forests outside the EU.<\/p>\n

Recent months have seen series of calls to delay implementation of the EU Deforestation Regulation, whose opponents say places to high a regulatory burden on suppliers of targeted products \u2013 among them coffee, cocoa, beef, soy and palm oil \u2013 and could put firms out business and cause shortages and price rises in EU countries.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Commission continues to work very intensively on preparations for the entry into force of the law,\u201d spokesperson Adalbert Jantz told reporters in Brussels. \u201cIn particular, we are talking a lot with our partners in third countries.\u201d<\/p>\n

But several of those third countries \u2013 notably the US and, more recently, Brazil \u2013 have called on the EU executive to delay implementation. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said on 13 September that he had been lobbying Commission president Ursula von der Leyen to postpone the application of the law.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the centre-right European People\u2019s Party (EPP) \u2013 von der Leyen\u2019s political home \u2013 has been pushing hard for a delay, while Austria claimed earlier this year that deferring the proposal had the backing of as many as 20 member states in the EU Council.<\/p>\n

The issue appeared to come to a head last week when the EPP chair of the parliamentary agriculture committee reportedly claimed to have received assurance from Commission president Ursula von der Leyen that a proposal for delay was in the offing.<\/p>\n

The Commission spokesperson avoided confirming whether or not a postponement was under consideration, stating only that the EU executive had \u201cobviously\u2026 made no proposal so far to change the Deforestation Regulation\u201d.<\/p>\n

MEP Peter Liese (Germany\/EPP), who is the group\u2019s environment policy coordinator, told Euronews today that a postponement was \u201cdesperately needed\u201d to give the EU and its trading partners time to prepare for the new law, which was backed last year by a majority of his EPP group colleagues \u2013 including Commissioner-designate for agriculture Cristophe Hansen, who steered it through parliament.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven those that should be an ally, for example the new Brazilian government, which wants to change the policy of Bolsonaro, can't implement it,\u201d Liese said.<\/p>\n

The German lawmaker dismissed the suggestion that postponing or changing recently adopted environmental laws \u2013 the EPP also wants to reverse a 2035 ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel cars \u2013 could send a dangerous signal as the EU Green Deal enters its implementation phase under the second von der Leyen presidency.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf we just push through everything that was agreed without reconsidering when technical problems with implementations are there, the credibility of the Green Deal is undermined,\u201d Liese said. \u201cSo it's better to implement a good deforestation regulation late than a horrible thing soon.\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
