How we count
- Yes, No and Abstention come from the European Parliament's roll-call voting protocol.
- “Did not vote” is derived: MEPs with a mandate on the voting day for whom no vote was recorded. Abstentions do not count towards this.
- Subsequent vote corrections are shown but do not change the official result.
- Each vote (overall vote, amendment, partial vote) counts separately. Therefore totals may differ from pages that count differently.
Proposal to reject the text
This is not a vote on the substance of the text, but on a proposal to reject it as a whole. Voting in favour is therefore a vote against the text; if the proposal is rejected, the procedure continues.

What is this about?
- The regulation introduces a phased ban on imports of Russian natural gas and oil into the EU to eliminate energy dependencies.
- The aim is to enhance supply security and prevent market manipulation by Russia.
- Existing supply contracts will be granted transitional arrangements to facilitate an orderly diversification.
- Monitoring of energy imports will be tightened to prevent circumvention of the ban.
- National diversification plans are intended to coordinate the transition to alternative energy sources.
