NEW SURVEY: MAYORS WANT MORE EU MONEY FOR HOUSING
Despite hopes from mayors in the EU, it seems unlikely that next EU budget will be able to prioritise housing substantially.

Competing priorities, such as defense, could make it difficult.

More than half the surveyed mayors want more money from EU budget. By far the biggest wish from mayors wanting help from the EU to fix the housing crisis.

Even if EU imported all of its LNG from Trump, it would only cut €30 billion from the alleged €305 billion trade deficit😲

Balancing deficit would require importing fossil fuels solely from U.S. - 3 reasons why that’s unlikely👇

Analyst: Buying Trump's fossil fuels cannot balance EU’s trade deficit with U.S.

EU countries would need to become completely dependent on Trump for oil, coal and gas imports to close the alleged trade deficit with the U.S. Analyst highlights three potential problems.

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.

Trump wants the EU to buy U.S. energy - BUT EU
demand for liquified natural gas is declining.

Utilisation rate of LNG terminals are falling steadily.

U.S. is already the biggest exporter of LNG to EU countries.

Could a gas deal affect EU energy consumption and climate goals?

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 seems more willing to compromise this mandate. The group hopes to influence EPP policy by making compromises.
