Abstract:

Lithuania is trying, so far unsuccessfully, to block Belarus' plans to sell electricity to the Baltic States. President Gitanas Nauseda asked the President of the European Commission (EC) Ursula von der Leyen to mediate on this issue between Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia. The latter two recognise the primary security problems with the plant, but also indicate the importance of economic factors. In the economic crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the price of energy will play an increasingly important role, and in the new budget of the European Union, the climate and energy transition are gaining importance.
