In a climate of tension is currently taking place the Summit of European leaders for energy interventions, as no agreement has yet been reached to reach a common text of conclusions with the countries of the North and South having substantial disagreements.
According to information, the draft conclusions which had become known yesterday has changed and a new version has been released, which takes into account all the individual modifications and interventions that have been made.
Indicative of the prevailing tension is the fact that the Spanish Prime Minister, Pedro Sanchez, left the Summit Hall, to “clear”, as he said, his mind.
“Very nice! “I’m going to get some air and clear my mind and if you have something new to tell me, tell me,” he said angrily to the other leaders.
According to El Pais, Sanchez allegedly read the tweet of a journalist, who noted that the Spanish president was threatening to veto the conclusions of the Summit. Then, outraged by the leaks, Sanchez left the room.

The Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis reiterated his proposal for the need to impose a ceiling on the price of natural gas and to address the transmission of gas prices in the electricity market and to consumers.
According to France 24 journalist Dave Keating, “things are not going well in the debate on reducing energy prices.”
Citing sources at the summit, he noted that EU leaders were disappointed with German Chancellor Olaf Solz because he did not appear to have the ability of his predecessor to find a compromise.
“The general feeling in the room is that Merkel and I would have reached an agreement on the ceiling a long time ago.”
