#European_Commission President #Ursula_von_der_Leyen:

Today is a historic day for our Union. Last night, we reached a provisional agreement on the Commission's proposal to fully phase out #Russian fossil fuels. We are turning that page. We are turning it for good. This is the dawn of a new era. The era of #Europe's full energy independence from #Russia.

Many believed this would be impossible. Well, the figures speak for themselves, let me give you some.

Today, #Russian gas imports - LNG and pipeline - are down from 45% to 13%, coal imports, from 51% to now zero, and on crude oil, from 26% to 2%.

As we slashed #Russian imports of fossil fuels massively, we also cut the revenues that #Russia uses to wage its war of aggression against #Ukraine. We were paying #aRussia EUR 12 billion per month at the beginning of the war for fossil fuels - now we are down to EUR 1,5 billion per month, still too much, and we aim to bring it down to zero.
