Jorgensen stated the need to reduce dependence on energy supplies from Russia by reducing energy demand and achieving measures aimed at saving energy.

In October, Turkish Treasury and Finance Minister Nureddin Nebati announced that the European Union is dependent on Russian gas supplies.

The head of European diplomacy, Josep Borrell, admitted that the well-being of the European Union was based on cheap energy resources from Russia.
