This is why we are proposing to:

🔹 Aggregate at EU level at least 15% of the gas demand needed to fill gas storages.
🔸 Introduce default solidarity rules to share gas in case of supply shortages.

#REPowerEU

We are providing an additional €100 million to further support seven EU countries welcoming those fleeing Russia's brutal invasion.

For cleaner air.

We have made progress to clean up the air we breathe. But we need to do more.

Our #ZeroPollution plan will help align EU air quality standards closely with World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines by 2030.

This means we can achieve our zero pollution aim for air by 2050

Ukrainians need relief, fast rehabilitation and reconstruction for their daily survival.

For this, we need all hands on deck – with international institutions, the private sector and civil society all playing a crucial role.

Europe is embracing the shift to zero-emission mobility.

By 2035, all new cars and vans registered in Europe will be zero-emission.

We welcome the agreement reached by the European Parliament and the EU Council.

Today, we've decided to prolong and amend the State aid Temporary Crisis Framework in order to support the economy in the context of Russia's war against Ukraine.

The framework enables EU countries to support those that need it, using the full flexibility of State aid rules.

We are providing Serbia with €165 million in immediate grant support.

And EU-funded projects like the 🇷🇸🇧🇬 gas interconnector are working for your energy future.

The 🇷🇸🇧🇬 gas interconnector will improve Serbia’s energy security – and bring you one step closer to the EU.

We also invite 🇷🇸 to take part in our EU joint procurement of energy.

We will be happy to have Serbia with us. twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…
