Deal on #REPowerEU! We've made it: Europe is turning off the tap on Russian gas, forever. We've chosen energy security and independence for Europe. No more blackmail. No more market manipulation by Putin. We stand strong with Ukraine.

We are getting rid of Russian fossil fuels. In March, EU oil imports from Russia fell by 90% compared to the 2019-2022 average. EU sanctions against Russia and the G7 price cap on Russian petrol and related products are delivering results. #REPowerEU

The #EU energy ministers have approved emergency interventions in electricity markets. I welcome the political agreement reached! It preserves the main elements of our proposal & will provide the Member States a tool to shield consumers from high electricity prices.
⚡️ #TTE Energy | DEAL!👏 Ministers reached a political agreement on measures to mitigate high electricity prices: mandatory electricity demand reduction, cap on market revenues from inframarginal electricity producers and solidarity contribution from fossil fuels producers.

The illegal annexation proclaimed by Putin won’t change anything. All territories illegally occupied by Russian invaders are Ukrainian land and will always be part of this sovereign nation.
