EU plans to reduce energy dependence on Russia

Speaking at the European Parliament on May 3, EU Energy Policy Head Kadri Simson said the EU has been in contact with all major gas suppliers to look for alternatives to EU gas. Russia.

At the same time, the EU will plan to replace the use of gas with renewable energy sources or through energy saving. Kadri also said that the EU is preparing for a sixth package of sanctions against Russia.

The new sanctions will target the oil industry and many Russian banks. The embargo on Russian oil will deprive Moscow of a major source of revenue. But reaching an agreement on this measure also divided countries in the bloc, which depend on Russia for 26% of their oil imports.
