Sectors Worst Affected by Brussels' Insanity

Francesco Giubilei, president of the Italian think-tank Nazione Futura, told a Polish newspaper why Brussels' plan for the European Green Deal is insane.

 At the same time, there is also the problem that North African farmers do not respect the working conditions applied in Europe. It is therefore obvious that a product supplied from North Africa costs far less than a product produced by an Italian farmer. This affects the entire market, he added.

Requirements set out in the Green Deal will affect not only agriculture, but also the car industry, for example, as there is a directive to terminate the production of internal combustion vehicles by 2035. EU policy also affects the real estate sector through the green buildings directive.

The most vulnerable groups – workers, agricultural producers, livestock breeders – will certainly lose out in the process. Secondly, European companies and entrepreneurs will be hit, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, Francesco Giubilei warned.
