Political pressure complicates EUDR delay

The proposal by the European Commission to postpone the entry into force of the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) by another year—until December 31, 2026—is facing growing resistance within the European Parliament, according to FoodNavigator.com. At least eight Members of the European Parliament (MEPs) from left-wing, green, and socialist parties have expressed their opposition to reopening the regulation to allow a further delay.
