#VerbrennerAus | Kurz vor Schluss alles neu diskutieren zu wollen, habe die deutsche Glaubwürdigkeit in der #EU beschädigt, so der @epp - Vorsitzende @manfredweber. Die #FDP habe in #Brüssel nicht genug für Technologie -offene Lösungen gekämpft. @EPPGroup @CSU @mr_steinhaeuser
The European Council is happening! EU27 will discuss Ukraine, industrial policy, migration, nuclear etc. On nuclear, important nuance required: FR isn’t looking to qualify nuclear as « green » (it knows it’s not!). (Cfr @POLITICOEurope)

„France-Germany energy tensions loom over EU summit
A burgeoning row between ...France and Germany fired by differences over nuclear energy and combustion engines threatens to spill over into a gathering of the 27 European Union leaders on Thursday (23 March).
A row erupted between two of the European Union’s biggest economies after Berlin upset some of its partners, notably France, by blocking — at the last minute — a landmark deal to prohibit new sales of fossil fuel cars from 2035.
The ban is key to Brussels’ ambitious plan to become a “climate neutral” economy by 2050, with net-zero greenhouse gas emissions.
In an unprecedented action this month, Germany intervened after the car ban had already been approved under the EU legislative process. It demanded that Brussels provide assurances the law would allow the sales of new cars with combustion engines that run on synthetic fuels.

Nuclear-powered France wanted atomic energy to be included in the list but, while it failed to achieve that goal, it won a small victory.
Nuclear did feature in the proposals announced but the plans only apply to fourth-generation reactors that do not yet exist, meaning atomic energy would obtain little of the advantages on offer.
Macron will “focus on the role of nuclear in decarbonisation” during the leaders’ meeting, a French government source said.
Another senior EU diplomat was less optimistic about what the summit would achieve, given the distance between the capitals.
“We don’t expect a spectacular breakthrough on any specific issue,” the diplomat said.“

President @EmmanuelMacron has just compared violent protests against his controversial pension reform to the assault on the US Capitol and promised a series of goodies for workers – including profit-sharing – if the country returned to normal. 1/
