Friedrich Merz has barely taken office as Chancellor when he is calling into question key advances in human rights and environmental protection: During his inaugural visit to Brussels, he advocated for the abolition of the German Supply Chain Act and the EU Supply Chain Directive. This change of course not only breaks with the coalition agreement but also undermines the trust of committed companies and affected parties worldwide. A broad alliance of over 90 organizations – from human rights and environmental associations to churches and trade unions – is therefore calling for a joint petition: No profits without conscience – protect human rights and the environment!
