Qatar's Energy Minister Saad Al-Kaabi said he was hopeful the European Union (EU) would resolve companies' concerns over its sustainability laws by the end of December. Qatar has aired its frustration with the EU's Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) and has threatened to halt gas supplies. The dispute centres around CSDDD's potential to fine violators up to 5 per cent of total global revenue.
