"The EU has no common gas market; it is very fragmented and mainly regional. However, some areas in the EU do not even have a regional gas market. These are the Baltic countries – Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and Finland – which are not generally integrated and have no links to the EU gas network.
Dependence on a single supplier with a penchant for using energy supply for political purposes is quite dangerous to both energy security and the general security of the EU.
Eliminating energy islands and creating links between states and regions should be the main priority of EU energy policy, supported by the finances and political will of the Union.
The Third Energy Package for the gas market could be implemented only with EU help and constitutes the instrument that would enable the European Union to be more secure.
The third way – this is the five-year period during which EU Member States must find the political willpower and finances to eliminate energy islands in the gas market."@en1
