Brexit talks: EU Commissioner warns against 'a race to the bottom'

Elisa Ferreira, European Commissioner for Cohesion and Reforms © FRANCE 24

The European Commission has unveiled plans for a €100 billion fund intended to help some of the most greenhouse gas-producing parts of the continent move into cleaner ways of producing energy, jobs and wealth. It's known as the Just Transition Fund, and it's going to be the partial responsibility of our guest. Portugal's Elisa Ferreira is the new European Commissioner for Cohesion and Reforms. She spoke to us about the Just Transition Fund, the EU budget, cohesion policy and relations with the UK after Brexit.

Presented by Catherine Nicholson

Produced by Isabelle Romero and Sophie Samaille
