Open letter urging the European Parliament to impose embargo on Russian gas

The Green Tank co-signed an open letter by Ukrainian climate NGO Razom We Stand, in partnership with over 100 organizations, to the newly elected European Parliament members urging them to support the imposition of a complete embargo on Russian gas by the end of 2024.

As Razom We Stand mentions in a relevant announcement, the letter emphasizes the urgent need to stop the financial flow from Europe to Russia, which continues to fuel the Kremlin’s war efforts against Ukraine. Despite existing sanctions, the EU member states remain one of the largest purchasers of Russian fossil fuels, contributing significantly to Russia’s war chest.

On behalf of The Green Tank, the letter was signed by Nikos Mantzaris, co-founder and policy analyst.
