EU preparedness in an uncertain world: MEPs discuss the Niinistö report*
At 9.00, former Finnish President Sauli Niinistö will present his report on how the EU can take a more proactive approach to preparedness and comprehensive security instead of merely reacting to shock events, as the world becomes more crisis-prone and less predictable. Mr Niinistö’s address will be followed by a debate between MEPs.

EU deforestation law: vote on postponing its application*
At 11.00, MEPs will decide whether to delay provisions of the EU deforestation law, which aims to ensure products sold in the EU are not sourced from deforested land anywhere in the world. Several amendments have been proposed by political groups, including the creation of a new category of countries posing “no risk” on deforestation, which would come with less stringent requirements.

/ Votes*
COP29*. Parliament will vote on its demands for the 2024 UN Climate Change Conference COP29 at 11.00. In the draft text, MEPs want all countries to agree on a new post-2025 collective goal on climate finance and to phase out all direct and indirect fossil fuels subsidies as soon as possible, reallocating these resources towards climate action.
Russia*. At 11.00, MEPs will vote on a resolution on how the EU should confront the problem of Russia’s shadow fleet transporting crude oil,, including through the enforcement of sanctions. The draft text calls for more targeted measures against these vessels as well as more inspections and the systematic sanctioning of ships sailing through EU waters without known insurance.
