From 13th to 16th February 2023 the Members of the EU Parliament from 27 member countries\u00a0<\/span>participated at the plenary session in Strassburg. Besides the ongoing war in Ukraine the\u00a0<\/span>C02 reduction tasks for new vehicles and the voting right of the mobile citizens of the\u00a0Union were on the agenda.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The war in Ukraine was again the main thema in the Parliament. Only some days after\u00a0the Ukrainian President Zelensky addressed the European delegates in Bruxelles,\u00a0<\/span>this time the Latvian President held his speech for the delegates. He repeated the demand\u00a0<\/span>of the Parliament about the formation of a special tribunal for Russian peacebreakers and\u00a0also the proposal according to which the frozen Russian funds would be used for the\u00a0reconstruction of Ukraine.<\/p>\n

The Parliament agreed upon the revison of reduction tasks for new cars and light\u00a0<\/span>commercial vehicles in the frame of the package \u201eFit for 55\u201c. On this basis the\u00a0emissions for new cars\u00a0 <\/span>would decrease till 2030 by 55%, for light commercial\u00a0 <\/span>vehicles\u00a0by 50%. By the year 2035\u00a0 <\/span>all these vehicles even should be without emissions, what\u00a0means that from 2035 on no new vehicles with gasoline or diesel motor would be\u00a0<\/span>permitted.<\/p>\n

The Parliament also gave green light\u00a0 <\/span>to proposals regarding the simplification of the voting\u00a0right for about 11 millions of the mobile citizens of the EU in their voting age, who live in\u00a0one of the member countries, however do not have the citizenship of this country. In order\u00a0<\/span>that such mobile citizens could take part in European and communal elections, the members prepared several obligatory principles, among others the formation of an automatic voting\u00a0<\/span>register for all voting beneficiaries of the Union, who have the citizenship of another\u00a0<\/span>member country. They also proposed to establish\u00a0 <\/span>a basis of multilingual information\u00a0<\/span>regarding the voting rights and schedules.<\/p>\n
