EU Climate and Nature Protection Plan Indefinitely Postponed Due to Farmer Protests

The European Union's ambitious plan to fight climate change and restore biodiversity is stalled amid widespread agricultural protests, jeopardizing the bloc's environmental goals.

Large-scale farmer protests across Europe have led to the indefinite postponement of a major EU climate and nature protection plan.
Hungary's withdrawal of support for the plan, citing agricultural concerns, was a key factor in the deadlock.
The plan aimed to restore a significant portion of the EU's habitats by 2030 and achieve climate neutrality by 2050.
Upcoming EU parliamentary elections in June add to the complexity of resolving the deadlock.
Environmentalists express disappointment as the postponement signals a potential pause in environmental actions to protect economic competitiveness.
