By Richard L. Morningstar, András Simonyi, Olga Khakova, Irina Markina

The European Union’s efforts to achieve a carbon-neutral economy present a unique and timely opportunity to strengthen European energy security.

And how can this be done while simultaneously increasing European energy security and opportunities for transatlantic cooperation?

By Lukas Trakimavičius
