Will the Coronavirus Crisis Trump the Climate Crisis
https://nyti.ms/2WeSq9a Will the Coronavirus Crisis Trump the Climate Crisis? The battle over how to spend recovery funds — to quickly restore the old economy or invest in a greener one — will define the post-pandemic world. By Steven Erlanger Published May 9, 2020 Updated Dec. 11, 2020 BRUSSELS — With the global paralysis induced by the coronavirus, levels of pollution and carbon emission are dropping everywhere — leaving bluer skies, visible mountains, splendid wildflowers. Even Venice’s famously murky canals are running clear. After decades of industry and government slow-walking the climate issue, for some it is proof that effective action can be achieved. But nature’s revival has come at enormous cost, with Europe’s economy projected to decline 7.4 percent this year. So for many, like the suddenly unemployed, concerns about climate — which seemed urgent just a few months ago — can seem less so now. Those competing camps are now locked in debate over how and what to rebuild — between those who want to get the economy moving again, no matter how, and those who argue that the crisis is a chance to accelerate the transition to a cleaner economy. Jean Pisani-Ferry, an economist and former aide to President Emmanuel Macron of France, described this as the struggle that “will define the post-pandemic world.” For green militants, the virus “only strengthens the urgent need for climate action,’’ he wrote recently. “But die-hard industrialists are equally convinced: There should be no higher priority than to repair a ravaged economy, postponing stricter environmental regulations if necessary.

Europe's Troubles Sebastian Rosato
Europe’s Troubles Europe’s Troubles Sebastian Rosato Power Politics and the State of the European Project For a decade after the end of the Cold War, observers were profoundly optimistic about the state of the European Community (EC).1 Most endorsed Andrew Moravcsik’s claim that the establishment of the single market and currency marked the EC as “the most ambitious and most successful example of peaceful international co- operation in world history.” Both arrangements, which went into effect in the 1990s, were widely regarded as the “ªnishing touches on the construction of a European economic zone.”2 Indeed, many people thought that economic inte- gration would soon lead to political and military integration. Germany’s min- ister for Europe, Günter Verheugen, declared, “[N]ormally a single currency is the ªnal step in a process of political integration. This time the single currency isn’t the ªnal step but the beginning.”3 Meanwhile, U.S. defense planners feared that the Europeans might create “a separate ‘EU’ army.”4 In short, the common view was that the EC had been a great success and had a bright future. Today pessimism reigns. When it comes to the economic community, most analysts agree with former German Foreign Minister Joschka Fischer’s claim that it is “in a moment of a very severe crisis.” The conventional wisdom, notes the European Union’s ambassador to the United States, João Vale de Almeida, is that the EC “is dying, if not already dead.”5 At the same time, hardly anyone still predicts political or military integration.

Europe Unveils Plan to Shift from Fossil Fuels, Setting up Potential Trade Spats
PLAY THE CROSSWORD Account Climate Change › Pesticide Ruling Western Drought Drilling in Alaska Wildﬁre Tracker ADVERTISEMENT Europe Unveils Plan to Shift From Fossil Fuels, Setting Up Potential Trade Spats The proposal would impose tariffs on some imports from countries with looser environmental rules. It would also mean the end of sales in the European Union of new gas- and diesel- powered cars in just 14 years. 625 A photovoltaic energy farm near the town of Bogatynia, Poland. Maciek Nabrdalik for The New York Times By Steven Erlanger and Somini Sengupta Published July 14, 2021 Updated Aug. 25, 2021, 5:23 a.m. ET BRUSSELS — In what may be a seminal moment in the global effort to fight climate change, Europe on Wednesday challenged the rest of the world by laying out an ambitious blueprint to pivot away from fossil fuels over the next nine years, a plan that also has the potential to set off global trade disputes. The most radical, and possibly contentious, proposal would impose tariffs on certain imports from countries with less stringent climate-protection rules. The proposals also include eliminating the sales of new gas- and diesel-powered cars in just 14 years, and raising the price of using fossil fuels. “Our current fossil fuel economy has reached its limit,” the president of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, said at a news conference in Brussels. The effort, pushed by the European Commission, the E.U.’s bureaucracy, makes the 27-country bloc’s proposal the most aggressive and detailed plan in the world to reach a carbon-neutral economy by 2050, proposing big changes during this decade.

Do We Need a New European Security Culture? Why the Best of Détente Is Yet to Come
In: IFSH (ed.), OSCE Yearbook 2009, Baden-Baden 2010, pp. 61-75. Egon Bahr/Reinhard Mutz Do We Need a New European Security Culture? Why the Best of Détente Is Yet to Come It is almost two decades since the division of Europe into two antagonistic power blocs was consigned to history. However, the debate over a new Euro- pean security order – one that builds on the experiences of the past and mas- ters the challenges of the future – is ongoing. How has the West conceived of relations between itself and its former Cold War opponent in the post- confrontational era? The signals that Russia received were often unclear, am- biguous, and contradictory. Let us take an example. No longer “us against you”, no longer “you against us” but “all of us together on the same side” – that was said to be the new philosophy of the new NATO. This was the catchy message that then US Secretary of State Madeleine Albright brought to Russia’s President Boris Yeltsin on her first visit in February 1997.1 The language is reminiscent of the soaring rhetoric from the earliest days of the post-Cold War era, when talk was of an end to enmity, the end of the division of Europe, and equal security in a new age of peace. All together on the same side? This would eliminate the justification for the continuing existence of a military alliance, one of whose characteristic features is to ascribe members and non-members alike their places on one side or the other. It certainly would not require the expansion of the alliance, the shifting of boundary posts and checkpoints to the east, and the drawing of a new dividing line – thus confirming that one already exists – between in- siders and outsiders.
