Santa Claus? More like Santa’s abusive contract clause. SC holds a dominant position in the market for gift deliveries on Christmas Eve, with a whopping 100% market share. Over the years, he has abused this dominance in a variety of ways. 1/5

In 1996, EU Commissioner Erkki Liikanen received Santa Claus in Brussels. They met, they did a press point and they discussed the accusations of Santa's monopolistic position, among other topics.

Saddened by the passing of Former Finnish President Martti Ahtisaari. Finland has lost a remarkable statesman. Europe, a visionary. And the world, a champion of peace. I express my condolences to his family and to the people of Finland. Syvimmät osanottoni.

Big majority for Renewable Energie Directive in European Parliament. Big support for #renewableenergies. #RED3 Member Staates must use Brussels boosters; flexibility and openness to technology increase the energy supply and drive down prices.

Europe and Uruguay both want to become climate neutral by 2050. Today's agreement on energy will help us get there, together. It will also support the development of green hydrogen, a strategic industry for the future of Uruguay.

I met this afternoon in Vienna @iaeaorg DDG @LydieEvrard to get the latest on the situation at #Zaporizhzhya NPP. I expressed our serious concern. The EU continues to support ISAMZ missions. The 5 principles must be fully respected. Stakes are too high. @Energy4Europe

By requiring reduced electricity ⚡️ consumption of products when they are in low power mode, #energysavings are estimated to 4 TWh per year by 2030 = annual #CO2 saving 🌱 of 1.36 million tonnes of CO2 equivalent. See more ➡️ https://t.co/B6OiTsLoUs #EUecodesign
