Opposition demands Poland leave EU Emissions Trading System

Poland's main right-wing opposition party, Law and Justice (PiS), has demanded the government withdraw from the EU's Emissions Trading System (ETS), arguing it disproportionately burdens Poland due to its heavy reliance on coal. The government counters that leaving ETS would result in large fines unless Poland exits the EU entirely. The opposition claims exiting ETS would significantly reduce energy bills.
