@jacekzarzecki @jwojc A czy pod koniec komisarz Wojciechowski nie oferował raczej 35 000 ton niż 23 000?

Australia naciska na 50 000 ton wołowiny rocznie przy niższych taryfach, podczas gdy Bruksela oferuje 30 000. W 2023 roku kiedy negocjacje zostały zawieszone ze względu na sprzeciw @jwojc na stole były mniejsze wolumeny. AU żądała 45 000 ton. UE dawała 23000 ton. Nie wygląda to dobrze…

Czech PM Andrej Babiš built his fortune making fertilizer. But that’s just one part of his vast business network. A POLITICO examination maps the quieter pillar of his business empire — and the regulatory blind spots surrounding it 👇 🔗 politico.eu/article/fertil…

The commercial empire of Czech PM Andrej Babiš spans nitrogen-based fertilizers, assisted reproduction, online lingerie stores and more. Yet in Brussels, no one can answer a simple question: Which of his companies receive EU money — and how much? politico.eu/article/fertil…

Thousands of Poles who believed they were long divorced are discovering an unsettling possibility: They may still be legally married. politico.eu/article/poland…

As the Polish government tries to undo controversial court reforms, long-settled divorces are being thrown into doubt. And that is handing fresh ammunition to the opposition. 🔗 politico.eu/article/poland…

The EU's trade agreement with the Mercosur bloc is going through despite tractor protests, border blockades and opposition from farm groups and capitals including Paris and Warsaw. But the price of getting a deal over the line was steep. 🔗 politi.co/3NhqOgu

To secure backing for the EU's long-delayed trade pact with the Mercosur bloc, Ursula von der Leyen rolled out some extra budget promises on farm funding. The target was clear: Italy’s Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni. 🔗 politi.co/3N9kYOj

Paris and Rome have rushed to claim credit for a €45 billion gift from the European Commission to growers ahead of a Mercosur trade deal vote tomorrow, but farm lobbyists are less convinced. politico.eu/article/eu-urs…

While Poland is Europe’s largest defense spender, its domestic industry absorbs only a sliver of that money. That’s becoming a political problem. 🔗 politi.co/4oLpU9e

As a frontline NATO heavyweight, Poland is seething at being relegated to the diplomatic sidelines on a potential peace deal in Ukraine. politico.eu/article/poland…
