Letter to EC regarding a request for EIB emergency funding by European airlines

The European Regions Airline Association (ERA) has approached the European Commission with a request for the EIB to make available financing for airlines in the context of the current crisis.

In their letter, CEE Bankwatch Network, together with WWF-UK, AirportWatch and European Federation for Transport and Environment urge the European Commission to refuse such a bail-out for the aviation industry with its high-carbon intensity and overcapacity.
