BRUSSELS — Europe’s nuclear advocates are pushing their favorite energy source as a deterrent against the type of blackout that seized Spain and Portugal last week — even if the facts paint a muddied picture. The EU’s atomic allies are claiming that having more nuclear energy coursing through the grid can help ensure a stable power supply to back up renewable sources like wind and solar.

BRUSSELS — The European Union wants its members to stop funding Russia's war in Ukraine. And it's done with asking nicely. An ambitious new strategy launched by the EU’s executive on Tuesday would, if implemented, effectively end Moscow's lucrative gas sales to the continent in 2027 and require gas firms to break contracts with the Kremlin. That sets the stage for a major showdown between Brussels and the handful of leaders still pushing Russian energy.

BRUSSELS — The European Union’s executive will soon unveil legislation to end all Russian gas imports by the end of 2027. The goal is at the core of a plan that the European Commission presented on Tuesday. The Commission said it will release legislation next month to ban new gas contracts with Russia — a prohibition that would kick in at the end of 2025 for short-term market purchases, and at the end of 2027 for long-term contracts.

We wtorek Komisja Europejska, organ wykonawczy UE, przedstawi długo oczekiwany plan zerwania ostatnich powiązań energetycznych bloku z Rosją. Według dwóch europejskich dyplomatów plan ten będzie zawierał propozycję przyznania prywatnym firmom nowych uprawnień do wycofania się z inwestycji w Rosji, umożliwiając im wcześniejsze rozwiązanie umów i nakłaniając do wstrzymania wszelkich przyszłych transakcji. Dla UE to ostatnia deska ratunku dla UE.

BRUSSELS — The European Union is appealing to an unlikely ally to help finally rid the continent of Russian energy: oil and gas executives. They're not all necessarily that interested, though. On Tuesday, the European Commission, the EU’s executive, will unveil a long-awaited plan to sever the bloc’s final Russian energy links.
