The Czech government agreed on Friday to sue the European Union's executive body over its demand the country cut its proposed annual carbon...

...dioxide emissions in 2008-2012, an industry ministry spokeswoman said.

The European Commission cut the annual allocation of carbon emission rights for the Czech Republic to 86.8 million tonnes per year in 2008-2012 from 101.9 million demanded by the Czechs, down from 97.6 million tonnes in 2005-2007.

Neighbouring Slovakia filed a lawsuit against the EU's executive in February as the first EU member country to go to court over the Commission's demands to cut emissions.
