Mitsotakis: EU energy crisis response insufficient, national measures cannot counter global shocks

Greek PM Mitsotakis criticized EU energy crisis management, arguing that calls to reduce consumption are inadequate and that no national regulation can withstand an international energy attack. He spoke at the inauguration of an autonomous energy storage unit by Metlen Energy & Metals and Karatzis Group, signaling a push for domestic energy resilience. The statement reflects growing EU member-state frustration with bloc-level policy and underscores the strategic importance of energy storage infrastructure.
