MITCoal imports to the European Union are marginal
FAKT
In 2017 all the EU countries together imported 173 million tons of coal, which corresponds to the transfer of about 58 coal mines outside the EU borders and thus to 175,000 jobs directly at coal mines and another 525,000 jobs in sectors related to the mining industry. It is estimated that coal imports caused transfer of almost EUR 13 billion outside the EU borders.
