Gold prices tick higher on fresh US tariff threats, Fed rate cut hopes
Investing.com -- The European Union is maintaining its position on methane regulation despite the topic arising during trade discussions with the United States, an EU official stated Tuesday.
"We stand firmly by this regulation, it is the first of its kind," the official told reporters, emphasizing the bloc’s commitment to the pioneering environmental measure.
While the EU remains unwavering in its support for the regulation, the official indicated some flexibility might be possible in its application. "Basically within the framework of the regulation, we can be flexible in its implementation for instance in reporting," the official explained.
However, the EU representative made it clear that reopening or substantially altering the regulation is not on the table, stating: "We are not going to open the regulation, we stand by it."
