Amendment wording

Tabled by Marie Toussaint

Added: (1 a) In view of Russia’s ongoing war against Ukraine and in line with the Union’s strategic commitment to end its dependence on Russian fossil fuels, Member States should refrain from storing gas of Russian origin. In this context, the Union should pursue coordinated and immediate sanctions on the import and purchases of all Russian gas, including liquefied natural gas (LNG). The ENTSO-G Winter Supply Outlook 2024–2025 confirms that the Union can achieve its storage targets and maintain the security of supply without relying on Russian gas, by implementing a combination of measures, including continued demand reduction. A full embargo on Russian gas is therefore both necessary and feasible, and its swift implementation would contribute to strengthening the Union’s energy sovereignty and geopolitical resilience.
