NATO warns that Europe may face a jet fuel crisis in the event of a major war due to reduced refining capacities and a shift from fossil fuels. A recent study indicates that military fuel needs could exceed available supplies in the next decade, especially amid rising tensions with Russia. The report highlights that EU decarbonization policies have contributed to a decline in oil refinery operations, leading to a significant fuel deficit. Researchers suggest urgent measures, including maintaining refining capacities and increasing strategic fuel reserves, to prevent a crisis. NATO's Secretary General has echoed these concerns, emphasizing the need for reliable energy sources for defense.
