After delay, the European Union presents its plan on Tuesday to reduce its dependence on Russian energy, a complex challenge given the large amount of liquefied natural gas (LNG) currently imported from Russia by Europe.
After several postpones, the European Union unveils its plan on Tuesday, May 6 to try to do without Russian energy, a formidable challenge as Europe imports liquefied natural gas (LNG) from Russia today.
On the sidelines of a session of MEPs in Strasbourg, the European Commissioner Dan Jorgensen will present this long -awaited roadmap, the subject of several months of floats.
Since the Russian Invasion on a large scale in Ukraine, the European Union has established an embargo on Russian oil at the end of 2022 and then has endeavored to dry up its gas supply by gas pipelines. But the EU has partially turned towards liquefied natural gas (LNG), transported by ship, unloaded in ports, regzéified then injected into the European gas network.
In an attempt to do without Russian energy, “the guiding principle is the diversification of supplies,” said a spokesperson for the Commission, Paula Pinho, a few days ago.
