German chancellor Angela Merkel said on Thursday that she hopes that EU leaders agree on reaching the 2050 climate-neutrality target. "It would be a strong signal, if Europe is the continent that will be climate-neutral in 2050," she told reporters at the EU summit, stating that Germany supports the ambitious European Green Deal presented by the EU Commission on Wednesday.
