“We are negotiating with reliable suppliers of pipeline gas. If they do not bring results, then a ceiling on prices is possible,” said Simson, quoted by the press service of the European Commission.
Earlier, the energy ministers of 15 EU countries sent a joint appeal to the European Commission, in which they advocated the introduction of a price ceiling for all gas imported into the EU, regardless of its origin.
An emergency meeting of EU energy ministers is scheduled for Friday.
