Question for written answer E-002639/2025
to the Commission
Rule 144
Markus Buchheit (ESN)
Despite claims that the European Green Deal would boost the EU’s industrial strength, its real impact has been the opposite[1]. Excessive regulations and soaring energy prices are driving manufacturers out of Europe, while subsidised Chinese electric vehicles are flooding our markets. Meanwhile, the US Inflation Reduction Act is attracting investment with competitive incentives. EU climate ideology is putting the survival of our industry at risk.
- 1.Does the Commission admit that the European Green Deal has weakened the EU’s industry and helped expand the market share of non-EU, state-subsidised competitors, such as China?
- 2.What concrete measures will the Commission take to protect the EU’s manufacturers from unfair global competition and internal regulatory disadvantages?
- 3.Will the Commission revise its industrial and climate policy to prioritise industrial resilience, technological sovereignty and fair global trade conditions?
