Arya News - The European Union faces its harshest winter since 2022 due to near-record diesel prices, EU Energy Commissioner Dan Jorgensen said on Friday.
"This winter might be very, very bad [for Europe] and it might be the worst one we’ve had since 2022," Jorgensen told British newspaper. Diesel prices in the EU have been breaking records in recent weeks, surging by 40%. Jorgensen suggested that the most likely scenario was that prices would remain very high. He called on US President Donald Trump not to impose a ban on diesel fuel exports to Europe, saying he intended to raise the issue ahead of a meeting of EU energy ministers in Dublin next week. He argued that maintaining US energy exports to Europe at the same level was beneficial to both sides.
