Slovakia will file a lawsuit against the European Union regulation on deregulating new genetically modified organisms at the Court of Justice of the European Union. Prime Minister Robert Fico announced this after Wednesday's government meeting. hnonline.sk ↗
The dispute concerns new European rules for gene-edited plants. These have divided scientists, politicians, and the agricultural sector. According to published information, the Prime Minister argues there is uncertainty about what consequences the new rules might have for people. In the background of the dispute, according to available information, it is not only a question of food safety. Standard.sk ↗
The lawsuit is intended to be directed against the European Commission in connection with the deregulation of new GMOs. The Slovak government is thus opening a legal conflict with Brussels in an area that affects agriculture, food, and regulations for modern biotechnologies. The details of the exact wording of the lawsuit or the deadline for its submission do not emerge from the information provided. teraz.sk ↗
Further developments will depend on Slovakia's proceedings before the Court of Justice of the European Union and on the reaction of European institutions. The topic may remain the subject of political and professional debate, since the new rules for gene-edited plants affect the regulation of food and agricultural production. lupa.cz ↗

„V prípade atómových elektrární na Slovensku, aj v Jaslovských Bohuniciach, aj v Mochovciach, máme chladiace veže. To je to, čo nás odlišuje od atómových elektrární, ktoré vidíme v Maďarsku alebo ktoré vidíme napríklad v Rumunsku."
Reakcia na odstavenie jadrových elektrární v Rumunsku a Maďarsku pre rekordne nízku hladinu Dunaja. Slovenské elektrárne používajú uzavretý chladiaci okruh s vežami, ktorý potrebuje násobne menej vody než priame chladenie z rieky.
