Mr. Filip Vurm:

Yes, definitely. It is another one of the ideas which we would like to focus on and to create a strategic reserve. Another priority should be the good regulation of this reserve. We believe we should try to create a gas reserve, especially in the run up to the winter. This is something which might help to mitigate the crisis.

In terms of security, as I mentioned in my speech, we will focus on enhanced co-operation between the EU and NATO. Most of the EU countries are members of NATO. There are also non-EU countries that are members of NATO and that share our values. In this area, we should focus much more on creating synergies and on what we call the concept of strategic unity with like-minded partners. We are already seeing the impacts of the Ukrainian invasion on the architecture of Europe. We are all aware of what happened yesterday at the NATO summit in Madrid when Turkey removed its objection to Sweden and Finland joining NATO. Also Denmark changed its position quite recently on the common security and defence policy. We are already seeing quite a significant shift in the architecture of European security or, I would even say, in global security.
