In January, I wrote about MS continuing to invest in LNG infrastructure, despite the dramatic fall in demand.
A forced gas deal with Trump could increase gas consumption - or, at least, make the EU even more dependent on U.S. energy. 2/2

Risk of overinvestment in LNG could gamble with the EU’s climate goals and energy prices
Demand for LNG has dropped dramatically in the EU, but investments continue. Risk of overinvestment could impact energy prices and climate goals. Still, the EU considers LNG trade with Trump.

A closer look at today's vote expose the almost 50/50 split within the @greens-efa.eu.
A little more than half support the collaboration with centrist alliance.
Meanwhile, near half supported rejecting COM proposal completely and many also voted against the final proposal.

GREENS SPLIT ON PRIORITIES🤔
MEPs from Greens pushed to be part of centrist alliance with EPP, Renew and S&D.
HOWEVER, today's vote on delaying sustainability reporting reveal major internal split.
It could prove difficult for the alliance to wield Green votes in the future.
