“Nothing new learned”

Handelsblatt

The Green Party seems to have “learned nothing new” and is living up to its image of “the prohibition party”, writes Silke Kersting in an opinion piece in Handelsblatt about the party’s proposal to ban diesel and petrol engines for newly-registered cars from 2030. The Greens should learn from the past, Kersting writes. “Prohibitions are very little help. They simply provoke resistance.”
