Europa se pregătește pentru o iarnă grea. Gazul s-a dublat, iar fabricile se apropie de limită • Newsweek România

Europe faces a challenging winter with gas prices doubling and reserves at their lowest in years. Industries warn of potential production halts and job losses due to soaring energy costs. The price of natural gas has surged amid geopolitical tensions, impacting competitiveness for energy-intensive companies.
