Popis epizódy
In the wake of Europe's economic crisis brought on by measures connected with the global pandemic, the European Commission has earmarked hundreds of billions of euros, including 7.5 billion for Slovakia, for the purpose of economic recovery within member states. But not just any economic recovery - the EC expects this money to be used in line with the EU's long-term environmental goal of the transition to cleaner forms of energy. Exactly how Slovakia will use this money is one of the hot topics at this year's Central European Energy Conference, taking place this week in Bratislava. Just ahead of the conference Jonathan McCormick spoke with its organiser, Alexander Duleba of the Slovak Foreign Policy Association, about the long-awaited Slovak Recovery Plan and the complexities of long-term energy transition.
