Very pleased to see EU countries agreeing to reduce their gas demand. As

I strongly welcome the endorsement by Council of the regulation to reduce gas demand and prepare for the winter. It is a decisive step to face down the threat of a full gas disruption. Thanks to today’s decision, Europe is now ready to address its energy security, as a Union.
