ETS and aviation: 'Stop the clock,' but only for a year , says MEP

摘要

German centre-right MEP Peter Liese is calling for an exemption for international flights from the EU Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) to last "a maximum of a year." Liese, who says he backs the European Commission's decision to "stop the clock" until a global deal is reached on aviation emissions, explained to journalists that this needs to be done within a "realistic" timeframe.
