The European Parliament has voted to postpone and amend the EU's deforestation law, which aims to prevent imports of products linked to deforestation. The law, initially set to take effect in 2024, will now be delayed by a year for large companies and six months for smaller ones.

The vote reflects a shift towards a right-wing majority in Parliament, potentially impacting future environmental legislation. Teljes cikk (Euronews.com)
