How positions are measured

One poleThe Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism must be enforced without exception, imposing strict regulatory barriers on all imports, regardless of their origins, to ensure that no industry can escape our rigorous environmental standards, thereby preserving our planet at any cost and safeguarding our industries from foreign competition.
Other poleWe must champion free trade and innovation by dismantling the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism, allowing all imports without punitive measures, fostering global competition, and empowering industries to thrive without the shackles of excessive regulations, which stifle growth and disregard the dynamism of the market.
