On 28/03/2011 in Brussels, the European Commission adopted a comprehensive strategy "Transport 2050" for a competitive transport system that would increase mobility, remove major barriers in key areas and fuel growth and employment. At the same time, the proposals would dramatically reduce Europe's dependence on imported oil and cut carbon emissions in transport by 60% by 2050. Siim Kallas, Vice-President of the EC in charge of Transport, gave a press conference to explain the relevance of the subject.
