Prague and Warsaw negotiate the Polish mine Turov

It remains for the parties to agree on the duration of the agreement. The discrepancy is several years.

Minister of the Environment of the Czech Republic Richard Brabec said that the authorities of the Czech Republic and Poland have reached the finish line in negotiations on the operation of a Polish coal mine Turov… About this on Friday night, October 1, informed edition of Ceske Noviny.

In order to sign the agreement, the negotiators have one question left to decide.

“Mine Agreement Turov almost ready. At the moment, the question of the duration of its validity remains open. The document should ensure a long-term partnership between our countries regarding the mine Turov… The discrepancy on the term of the agreement is several years. We do not want to make concessions, “Brabets said.

Recall negotiations regarding the mine Turov at the expert level are taking place in Prague from 24 September.

They began shortly after the European Court of Justice in Luxembourg ordered Warsaw to pay the EU 500 thousand euros for each day of coal mining in the mine Turov… The Czech Republic filed a complaint against Poland, which stated that due to the operation of the mine in the region, the level of groundwater had dropped sharply.

The Polish authorities insist that they are seeking a peaceful settlement of the dispute with the Czech Republic.
