UE pregătește „Made in Europe”. Industria europeană, țintă de 20% din PIB până în 2035. Britanicii se tem că vor fi excluși

The European Union is introducing new regulations to promote products made in Europe and reduce reliance on external suppliers in strategic sectors. The Industrial Accelerator Act aims to increase the manufacturing sector's contribution to the EU's GDP to 20% by 2035. The 'Made in Europe' initiative focuses on boosting production in industries like automotive, steel, and clean technologies, while also protecting against unfair competition, particularly from China. Concerns have arisen in the UK regarding potential exclusion from European supply chains, especially in the automotive sector, which could impact access to subsidies and public procurement. The UK government argues that its inclusion in the new rules would not be preferential due to strong economic ties post-Brexit. Negotiations are ongoing, and the final legislation is yet to be determined.
