The European Commission has proposed a voluntary reduction of 15 percent in the use of Russian gas for the countries of the European Union, in case supplies to Europe are stopped.
"We have to prepare for a total stoppage of Russian gas, and this is a possible scenario," European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen told reporters on July 20.
The European bloc has imposed tough sanctions on Russia, after launching an unprovoked attack on Ukraine on February 24.
These measures have prompted Moscow to reduce the amount of energy it delivers to some EU countries.
“Rusia është duke na shantazhuar neve. Rusia është duke e përdorur energjinë si armë. Prandaj, në çfarëdo rasti, qoftë i pjesshëm, ndalje e madhe, apo ndalje totale e gazit rus, Evropa duhet të jetë gati”, ka thënë von der Leyen.
Sipas këtij propozimi, zvogëlimi prej 15 për qind do të mund të zgjasë nga 1 gushti deri më 31 mars, dhe do të kalkulohet në bazë në të mesatareje përdorimi që është raportuar në periudhën e njëjtë të viteve 2016-2021.
Komisioni mund ta bëjë këtë cak si të detyrueshëm nëse vlerëson se ka rrezik të madh të ndaljes së gazit për BE-në.
Për t’u miratuar, propozimi duhet të ketë një shumicë prej 15 anëtarëve - nga 27 sa janë në total - apo mbështetje nga vendet që përfaqësojnë të paktën 65 për qind e popullsisë së bllokut.
European diplomats will discuss this proposal on July 22, with the possibility of its approval at another meeting of energy ministers on July 26.
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has warned of the power Russian President Vladimir Putin could have if he turns energy into a weapon and blocks the economies of the European bloc.
"The partial stoppage of gas is already affecting European economic growth, so a total stoppage would be much more severe", said the IMF.
According to this institution, the gross domestic product (GDP) in EU member states, such as Hungary, Slovakia and the Czech Republic, could shrink by up to 6 percent./rel.
