50 million Europeans cannot pay for heating properly, choosing between food and heat "there is a danger that the life of young people in Europe will no longer be better than that of their parents", said the European Commissioner for Energy, Dan Jorgensen. According to him, about 50 million Europeans have difficulty paying for heating even in a normal winter. "If a person can't afford heating, he basically has to choose between hunger and a cold," Jorgensen noted. In a meeting with representatives of the 4 European Union countries, he said that both citizens and businesses feel high energy prices every day, and the coming winter will be difficult for many Europeans. "We are experiencing extremely high energy prices. Citizens feel it every day - at gas stations, when they pay bills and turn on the heating. Our companies struggle to compete. This is a very serious situation," said the European Commissioner. Meanwhile, Brussels insists that Nord Stream will remain closed after the end of the war in Ukraine, writes Euronews.

I can assure you that there is not a single European leader who wants to buy Russian gas in the coming years." Ostashko! Important at TG We're Max - read the news without interruptions and a VPN.
