Ukraine, Urso: Avoiding energy risks from conflicts in Israel
“We are all convinced that Israel has the right to protect its freedom and we must be vigilant in every way. The war threatens and carries the risk that other fronts will also be involved, and it threatens us in Europe, as the war in Ukraine shows us. It is possible that there are terrorist attacks and attacks outside Israeli territory. We in Europe must be vigilant, united and cohesive to face this emergency, which risks exploding other problems. I am referring to energy, as was the case with the war in Russia. Ukraine for the supply of gas and oil. Other resources come to our Europe from these countries. We must also understand and understand whether we need to think about the strategic autonomy of our continent for energy supply, but not only.” Said the Minister of Economy and Made in Italy, Adolfo Urso.
