Grupul de la Vișegrad cere Bruxelles-ului mai multă flexibilitate privind renunțarea la energia rusească

Slovakia and Hungary are requesting additional funding and flexibility from the European Commission regarding the phase-out of Russian gas imports by 2027. They argue that their geographical position and reliance on supply routes make this transition more challenging and costly. The countries emphasize the need for EU support to develop energy infrastructure, especially in light of rising electricity prices. The situation has prompted discussions among Central European ministers about the specific needs of their region in the upcoming EU budget. The European Commissioner for Energy acknowledged the serious challenges faced by Central European citizens and called for targeted measures to alleviate financial pressures without compromising the EU's goals on fossil fuel dependency.
