The political agreement on the new rules to protect riders and workers of platforms such as Uber, Deliveroo and Glovo has failed for the second time.
This was announced by Belgium's rotating EU presidency.
The ambassadors of the 27, gathered in Coreper II to give the green light to the agreement on the directive renegotiated on 8 February between the EU institutions, did not find the necessary qualified majority.
France, Germany, Greece and Estonia, European sources explain, have announced their abstention, thus forming the necessary blocking minority among the 27. Italy, as far as we know, voted in favor of the text.
