  • Ms Mairead Mcguinness European Commissioner for Financial Services, Financial Stability and the Capital Markets Union Mr
    TO: Ms Mairead McGuinness European Commissioner for Financial Services, Financial Stability and the Capital Markets Union Mr Valdis Dombrovskis European Commission Executive Vice-President for An Economy that Works for People CC: Mr Frans Timmermans European Commission Executive Vice-President for the European Green Deal Ms Kadri Simson European Commissioner for Energy Brussels, 13 April 2021 Dear Executive Vice-President Dombrovskis, Dear Commissioner McGuinness, We are convinced that the Taxonomy Regulation is crucial for the European Union to achieve both the new greenhouse gas emissions reduction target for 2030 and climate neutrality by 2050. Additionally, the Regulation should help strengthening the European Union’s strategic resilience and global economic competitiveness, maintaining its energy security and affordability, boosting growth and job creation and supporting a just and inclusive energy transition that leaves nobody behind. However, to what extent the Taxonomy Regulation will ultimately meet these expectations depends primarily on the technical screening criteria (TSC) defined in the Delegated Act on climate change mitigation and adaptation. We understand the European Commission will publish it later this month, whereupon the European Parliament may make full use of its scrutinizing prerogatives under Article 290 TFEU. In advance of its publication, we would like to share with you some of our major concerns regarding the revised draft version of this delegated act. Firstly, it is indispensable that the Taxonomy Regulation takes into account transition at the energy system level and supports the most cost-efficient decarbonisation pathway for each Member State in line with the principle of technology neutrality. In this context, it is key to acknowledge the role of gaseous fuels.

  • In Search of the Amazon: Brazil, the United States, and the Nature of A
    IN SEARCH OF THE AMAZON AMERICAN ENCOUNTERS/GLOBAL INTERACTIONS A series edited by Gilbert M. Joseph and Emily S. Rosenberg This series aims to stimulate critical perspectives and fresh interpretive frameworks for scholarship on the history of the imposing global pres- ence of the United States. Its primary concerns include the deployment and contestation of power, the construction and deconstruction of cul- tural and political borders, the fluid meanings of intercultural encoun- ters, and the complex interplay between the global and the local. American Encounters seeks to strengthen dialogue and collaboration between histo- rians of U.S. international relations and area studies specialists. The series encourages scholarship based on multiarchival historical research. At the same time, it supports a recognition of the represen- tational character of all stories about the past and promotes critical in- quiry into issues of subjectivity and narrative. In the process, American Encounters strives to understand the context in which meanings related to nations, cultures, and political economy are continually produced, chal- lenged, and reshaped.

  • To Mr Roland Busch President and Chief Executive Officer of Siemens AG
    To Mr Roland Busch President and Chief Executive Officer of Siemens AG Copy: Dr Wolfgang Schäuble, President of the Bundestag Brussels, 27 May 2021 Dear Mr Busch, We, the undersigned Members of the European Parliament, would like to express our concerns regarding the Siemens AG close cooperation with Belarus, providing support to the authoritarian state regime, which continuously perpetrates crimes against democracy and European citizens. On 23th May, 2021 demonstrated threat of violence used against a civilian aircraft in the skies over Belarus is a reminder of the illegitimacy of the administration claiming authority in Minsk. Considering the fact, that on 15 February 2021, the Eurasian Development Bank and Minskenergo signed a EUR 101.2 million long-term loan facility agreement to finance the supply of key power equipment under a contract with SIEMENS Energy AB as part of the project to construct a 300 MW peaking power plant and that to the financing of the project is secured by the KFW IPEX Bank and Landesbank Hessen Thuringen Girozentrale, it must be stressed, that the support of European companies to the unpredictable authoritarian regime, which under these conditions develops a nuclear power plant less than 20 km from the European Union border is utterly unacceptable and shall not be tolerated by the European community. We would like to remind you that the Belarusian NPP was launched last year, despite the fact that Belarus failed to comply and remains non-compliant with the Espoo Convention on Environmental Impact Assessment in a Transboundary Context, in particular with regard to the selection of the Astravyets site, and also regarding the harsh breaches of the nuclear safety standards, international conventions and unimplemented EU stress tests.
