05.11.2025 โ‡ข The Day EU Climate Goals Watered Down
โŒจDutch media on November 5th began the day focusing on the ongoing US government shutdown and local election results, with reports highlighting Democratic victories and California's electoral map changes. However, by mid-morning, the narrative shifted significantly to European affairs. EU countries reached an agreement on a watered-down climate goal for 2040, a development widely reported across multiple outlets. This story continued to dominate headlines through the early afternoon, emphasizing the concessions made during the marathon negotiations. Later in the afternoon and evening, attention also turned to the ongoing challenges of Dutch cabinet formation, with D66 and VVD expressing differing preferences, and international police operations leading to arrests in a subscription fraud investigation.
