Mathiesen, Karl. "EU Accused of Being the ‘Missing Leader’ at COP26 Climate Talks". Politico. (1636588800)November 11, 2021. https://www.politico.eu/...

The role of the EU in the UN climate process has traditionally been to drive the talks and build the needed high ambition coalition.  But, according to green groups, diplomats, observers and allies, the EU appeared at COP26 ineffective, constrained and inept at times.  Where the EU was present and represented in negotiations, it remained silent.  This was met with disbelief and left the impression that the EU was more interested in closing documents than in principles.  However, the EU may be pushing for a deal behind closed doors that gets countries to announce new emissions cuts next year.
