“Abandoning all assumptions of the Green Deal would be the most beneficial for Russia,” Deputy Agriculture Minister Michał Kołodziejczak said today in Brussels. He added that the provisions of the Green Deal, however, must be implemented to meet the pockets of farmers and consumers.
As the Deputy Head of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development admitted, there is still a lot of concern among farmers about the Green Deal, but the role of the European Commission and Member States is to ensure that they do not suffer losses as a result of its implementation of the program.
All the more so because – as the politician emphasized – the European Commission, also under pressure from Poland, including Prime Minister Donald Tusk and Minister of Agriculture Czesław Siekierski, has relaxed a number of provisions, including those related to fallowing, fallowing, crop rotation and crop protection. diversification. We also managed to introduce provisions regarding the import of food from Ukraine.
Of course, we will work continuously to ensure that the provisions of the Green Deal do not exceed the capabilities of farmers; they must be implemented so that they fit into the pockets of farmers and consumers.
– assured Kołodziejczak.
According to the politician, the farmers’ protests spreading across Europe are being politically fueled, and the approaching date of the European Parliament elections is also mobilizing some to demonstrate.
All changes must be agreed with farmers and we count on such a dialogue, but we also see demands to jettison the entire Green Deal
– said Kołodziejczak.
Following the story of Tusk…
He added that he himself saw people wearing vests with the inscription “Polexit” during peasant protests in Poland and that he himself receives many messages that Poland should restore contacts with the East, including Belarus and Russia.
Changes are happening regarding the Green Deal, but talking about giving up all demands is very beneficial for Russia. Today, saying “we don’t want modernization, we don’t want changes” is the Russian direction
– said the deputy minister.
Michał Kołodziejczak took part in the meeting of European Agriculture Ministers in Brussels. During the meeting, Poland submitted, among other things, the demand that the EC should provide financial resources to help farmers in the event of crises, including weather crises such as downpours, floods and droughts, and the consequences of climate change in general.
During the meeting of agricultural ministers in the European district in Brussels, there was protest from farmers and milk producers. Several dozen people took part and no incidents occurred.
The European Green Deal introduces many guidelines, including: for agriculture. They are intended to enable Europe to achieve ‘climate neutrality’ by 2050.
It would be difficult to expect anything more eloquent from the deputy head of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development than what the main narrative managers of the Civic Platform suggest. Now any meanness can be explained as ‘anti-Russian activity’.
