  1. Phasing out Russian natural gas imports, improving monitoring of potential energy dependencies

    The European Parliament adopted its position on a proposed regulation to phase out Russian natural gas imports and improve monitoring of potential energy dependencies. The regulation would also amend Regulation (EU) 2017/1938 on security of gas supply, and the Parliament's position includes amendments to the Commission's proposal. Parliament calls on the Commission to refer the matter back if it substantially amends its proposal, and instructs its President to forward the position to the Council and national parliaments.
