The EU wants to improve its finances by introducing a CO2 tax on imports.
But in doing so she risks that the instrument will become unreliable in terms of climate policy in the eyes of the trading partners.

If the heads of state and government of the European Union (EU) have their way, there will be a »CO2 border tax« on imports into the Union from 2023; such a charge would be based on the CO2 value that arises in the production of the imported goods.
At the recent summit, they decided to use it to supplement the EU budget.
