“Today, a new regional task force was officially launched within the framework of the EU Energy Platform, which includes nine EU countries ... as well as Ukraine and Moldova,” RIA Novosti quotes a statement from the EC.
This is the second such structure - in April they formed a group of South-Eastern Europe.
The main task is to reduce dependence on Russian energy resources and fill storage facilities in anticipation of winter.
Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre earlier in a joint press conference with Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky promised to try to find gas for Ukraine.
