The rules, aimed at combating deforestation, have faced opposition from various sectors, including the packaging industry. The EU's environment policy chief is visiting South America to address criticism over a law banning imports linked to forest destruction. Additionally, the EU's trade chief warns of potential negative impacts on poorer countries due to late changes in plastic packaging rules.
