Over the past 4 years, the energy choices driven by the European Commission under Ursula von der Leyen have had self-sabotaging effects for Europe.

Key points:

Missed strategic objectives: Russia has not been significantly damaged and continues to sell energy to other partners.

Prolonged sacrifice: Four consecutive years of hardship cannot be considered “short-term”; the cost to citizens is real and growing: high bills, inflation, difficulties for families and businesses.

Political error: The strategy had limited effects on the enemy, but serious consequences for the European population, eroding trust in institutions and generating frustration.

In summary: European energy policy has proven to be a harmful and ineffective choice, with intangible strategic benefits and real costs for those who live in Europe every day.
