"The facts speak for themselves. Europe imports its energy security from beyond its eastern and southern frontiers – this is the simplest way to describe our current energy policy. It is a policy that divides the European Union and makes it weaker. At some point, we shall have to start work on achieving the goals that have been set, goals that are among those mentioned in the report that was put to the vote. At present, European Union Member States import about 80% of their oil and 60% of their natural gas requirements. In itself, this is no bad thing, except that the resources exist to reduce these high levels (shale gas in Poland, the United Kingdom and Romania) and that the Union is totally dependent on imports from Russia. This fact is clearly identified as a problem in the report, particularly for Central and Eastern Europe. The solution is simple: EU energy solidarity that results in extra funding for projects such as the Nabucco or Sarmatia pipelines that are of strategic importance for our energy security."@en1
