A compromise can still be reached on Europe's most ambitious nature restoration proposal for three decades in the face of stiff political opposition, the European Commissioner for the Environment and Oceans has said.

Virginijus Sinkevičius told the EU affairs website Euractiv he would continue to meet resistant MEPs as a vote looms on the Nature Restoration Law.
