EU energy ministers urgently discuss the issue of "cutting gas" 　　

EU energy ministers held an emergency meeting in Brussels on the 2nd to discuss the impact of the Russian-Ukrainian situation on the EU's energy supply, especially how to deal with Russia's suspension of natural gas supplies to EU countries

The European Commissioner in charge of energy affairs, Kadri Simsson, held a press conference after the meeting, saying that Gazprom has suspended gas supply to Poland and Bulgaria, and any EU member state may become the next "gas cutoff" target

Simsun said that opening a special account in Gazprom Bank through the exchange mechanism managed by the Russian government to settle gas fees in rubles is a violation of EU sanctions against Russia

Simsson said that there is no immediate risk to the security of gas supply in Europe at present, and the gas supply of Poland and Bulgaria has been solved through alternative routes in Greece and Germany

In order to deal with possible emergencies, Simsson said that it is imperative to carry out three aspects of work: one is to improve the emergency plan for gas supply according to the latest situation; the other is to ensure the gas storage before the next heating season; Supply diversification

On March 31, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a presidential decree on the settlement of natural gas trade in rubles with "unfriendly" countries and regions

Russian energy occupies an important position in the energy supply of European countries.
