EU strikes last-ditch deal on climate targets as COP30 looms

The European Union struck a deal Wednesday on the 27-nation bloc's next big emissions-cutting targets, after making a string of concessions to win over reluctant capitals in time for the UN's COP30 summit. Ministers also needed a unanimous deal on the EU emissions target for 2035, known as a Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC), which Paris Agreement signatories are supposed to bring to the COP30.
