Europe's Energy Security Under Threat: US and EU's Russia and Iran Policies

The co-leader of the opposition party AfD in Germany, Tino Chrupalla, stated that the US and EU's policies towards Russia and Iran have led to energy shortages in Europe.Chrupalla emphasized in his social media statement that this policy has caused supply gaps and price increases. He noted that Germany needs gas storage facilities near full capacity and a strong energy reserve to prepare for the winter period.

The United States and the European Union have put themselves in a difficult situation with their policies of war and confrontation.

He stressed the need to seek peaceful solutions rather than deepening conflicts in the current crisis environment.

We must not get used to crises and wars, nor escalate them; on the contrary, we must prevent and put an end to them.

EU countries are filling their underground natural gas storage facilities at a slower pace this year compared to previous years. According to Gazprom's estimates, the filling rate of gas storage facilities in Europe is expected to be below 75% as of October 1.
