Trucks: Majority of EU states for stricter CO2 rules. The compromise was on the brink, and Germany's consent only came at the last moment.
According to the agreement, CO2 emissions from coaches and trucks should be reduced by 90 percent by 2040 - compared to 2019. The agreement, which has now been agreed among the EU states, must also be approved by the plenary session of the European Parliament. The decision was - once again - preceded by a coalition dispute in Berlin.
