From New Delhi to Moscow, the story and then to Washington, the EU aviation carbon tax "has not stopped. July 31-August 1, the U.S. and 16 other countries gathered in Washington, DC, to discuss the settlement of international aviation carbon emissions under the Organization (ICAO) global agreement. 17 countries at the meeting once again reiterated that it will continue to strongly oppose the European Union's violation of non-EU national sovereignty against the EU unilaterally international aviation in its carbon emissions trading scheme (EU ETS).
"This meeting reconfirmed the attitude against the 'aviation carbon tax' and clear the road of the future solution." A senior U.S. official to the meeting.
I believe that the meeting is still not put forward a constructive program, nothing more than reiterate some of the views and countermeasures.
In fact, many industry insiders also said the meeting is not the case before the New Delhi meeting, and the results achieved by the Moscow meeting significant, because after all, two meetings were adopted and signed the "Delhi Declaration" and the "Moscow Declaration".
Aviation carbon tax ", the main non-EU countries and the EU officially confrontation has six months to resolve aviation carbon emissions are still not seen any progress, simply try to" reiterate "," adhere to the "to" discuss ".
However, prepared for the EU aviation carbon tax ", the international situation has a new change, the most obvious is the attitude of the U.S. government. Compared to the U.S. government had changed its hesitant attitude, this is the first time the U.S. government made it clear that its objections and of the EU aviation carbon tax "to follow the introduction of a bill to prohibit the domestic airlines in the EU ETS.
"In fact, once similar legislation adopted in all countries and entered into force, in fact, the EU attempts to the global aviation industry into its emission reduction system also will be failed." The British Government famous intellectual (Civitas) national research center David, head of Merlin Jones (David Merlin-Jones), the author said.
But this possibility is much yet to be considered.
However, many of the country believes that the attitudes and actions of the United States is a good thing for China. Although most of the right to speak in international disputes, the United States, opposition has been confirmed, does not mean victory for China's aviation emissions. Because the practice of the United States only consider the interests of the United States rather than China's interests.
