A Dutch environmental group says New Zealand has violated its climate change promises under the free trade agreement with the European Union, and is lodging the first complaint of its kind with the European Commission. The case, reported by RNZ, tests whether trade partners can be held to environmental commitments in trade deals. Critics and supporters are watching closely as it could set a precedent for how climate rules are enforced in future trade agreements.
Why now: It is the first-ever complaint of its kind linking a trade agreement's climate obligations to enforcement action at the European Commission.
