(ANSA) - BRUSSELS, JULY 06 - "We must prepare for further interruptions in gas supplies, even a complete interruption of supply by Russia. Today, a total of 12 Member States are directly affected by partial or total reductions in gas supply. It is obvious: Putin continues to use energy as a weapon. That is why the Commission is working on a European emergency plan. We will present this plan and the necessary tools by mid-July ".
This was stated by the president of the EU Commission Ursula von der Leyen speaking at the Plenary of the Eurochamber.
