During the vote by the European Parliament for a bill providing for the mandatory installation of a single charger for mobile gadgets sold in the EU , it was supported by 550 deputies. Now the bill referred to the European Council and , if approved , Apple will lose the ability to produce risk iOS devices equipped with a revolutionary port Lightning.

According to representatives of the Parliament , the introduction of such a law would reduce annual recyclable electronics at 51,000 tons.
