The US President Donald Trump has made clear that ending Europe’s reliance on Russian energy is a priority, US Ambassador to Greece, Kimberly Guilfoyle, said in a post on ‘X’.
“The European Union’s adoption of RePowerEU legislation to end all Russian gas imports by fall of 2027 is a step toward that goal. The United States stands ready to supply more reliable gas to our European partners through projects like the Vertical Corridor, which will leverage American and Greek infrastructure to grow our economies and power the future,” she added.
