Proposal for a regulation

Recital 1 a (new)

Text proposed by the Commission	Amendment
Text proposed by the Commission	Amendment(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.

Proposal for a regulation

Recital 10 a (new)

Text proposed by the Commission	Amendment
Text proposed by the Commission	Amendment(10 a) As approximately 90% of the Union’s gas consumption is covered by imports, the Union’s reliance on fossil gas represents a major vulnerability for energy security. Eliminating this dependency is essential to ensure a resilient, secure and sovereign energy system. In order to achieve climate neutrality and to bring a definitive end to fossil fuel dependence, fossil gas consumption must be fully phased out, and replaced by domestically produced renewable energy. Only then can the Union guarantee a secure and sustainable energy future.
