MADRID — Spain's center-right People’s Party has pledged to “put a stop to the imposition of unrealistic timelines” for climate goals if it wins the national elections on Nov. 29, a significant pivot from the Sánchez government’s pro-green policies. The PP, the favorite to win the vote, said decarbonization is an "essential goal for Europe," but promised to push for an "orderly, realistic, and fair transition," according to the energy chapter of the party's manifesto obtained by POLITICO’s Madrid Playbook. The manifesto said it’s time "to reassess the pace of progress" in the clean energy transition "without dogmatism," while conceding there are “environmental, geostrategic and economic reasons” behind the decarbonization strategy.
