The United States and the European Union have agreed upon a major deal on liquefied natural gas, or LNG, in an attempt to reduce Europe's reliance on Russian energy and to strengthen European energy security in the wake of the war in Ukraine.
Friday, visiting U.S President Joe Biden and his European Commission counterpart Ursula von der Leyen announced a joint Task Force for Energy Security. It will be chaired by one representative from the White House and another of the European Commission President. The Task Force will work to ensure energy security for Ukraine and the EU in preparation for next winter and the following one while supporting the EU's goal to end its dependence on Russian fossil fuels.
