"Just a few months ago, the institutions of the European Union addressed the issue of energy security in Europe. According to one admittedly platonic statement, the dependency of European countries on external energy sources will increase from 50 to 70% in the next twenty years.
The countries of the European Union do not possess significant natural sources of energy. I therefore support measures in favour of increased energy efficiency, alternative and renewable sources of energy, and energy conservation. Similarly, I support planned measures aimed at increasing stocks of oil and oil products in the Member States, and a common position for the European Union in talks with OPEC and other countries, aimed at improving the stability of the market for crude oil and energy.
On the other hand, however, EU institutions must adopt a more forward-looking approach to the closure of existing energy installations. In this context, I must criticise the decision, motivated largely by political considerations, to decommission prematurely the nuclear power plant at Jaslovské Bohunice, although the plant meets operational safety requirements. This will weaken the energy potential not only of Slovakia, but also of the entire European Union."@en1
