EU environment ministers are facing disputes over emission targets for 2035, necessary ahead of the COP30 summit in Brazil. A decision on emissions reduction for 2040 has been postponed, and member states are divided into two camps: the more ambitious ones, which want a reduction between 66% and 72.5%, and the less ambitious ones, which prefer a more modest target. Discussions are focused on establishing a clear position ahead of the UN General Assembly, and the divergences may require the convening of an extraordinary Environment Council.
