Volker Schnurrbusch, member of the Transport Committee and MEP for the ESN Group, commented:
“Once again, we have managed at EU level to stop an excessive escalation of the climate targets. The AfD remains the strong voice for our German economy and for genuine relief for ordinary citizens.”
His colleague in the group and deputy member of the Transport Committee, Arno Bausemer, added:
“The three votes of our ESN Group were the decisive tipping point. We stand firmly with our industry and working people. The ideologically blinkered politics of the so-called Green Deal – and its chief architect, Ursula von der Leyen – have failed. We will make sure this project does not cause any further damage!”
