(3) The Versailles Declaration of 10-11 March 2022 of the Heads of States and Governments invited the Commission to propose by the end of May a REPowerEU plan to phase out the dependency on Russian fossil fuel imports, which was subsequently reiterated in the European Council Conclusions of 24-25 March 2022. This should be done well before 2030 in a way that is consistent with the EU’s Green Deal and the climate objectives for 2030 and 2050 enshrined in the European Climate Law. Regulation (EU) 2021/241 should therefore be amended to enhance its ability to support reforms and investments dedicated to diversifying energy supplies, in particular fossil fuels, thereby strengthening the strategic autonomy of the Union alongside an open economy. Support should also be given to reforms and investments increasing the energy efficiency of the Member States’ economies.

Recital 22
(22) Recent geopolitical events have affected prices of energy and construction materials and have also caused shortages in the global supply chains. These developments may have a direct impact on the capacity to implement some investments included in the recovery and resilience plans. To the extent that Member States can demonstrate that such developments make a specific milestone or target, either totally or partially, no longer achievable, such situations may be invoked as objective circumstances under Article 21. These developments cannot constitute objective circumstances for revising reforms, as reforms are generally not cost dependent. In addition, no request for amendments should undermine the overall implementation of the recovery and resilience plans.

Recital 22 a (new)
(22a) Stresses the need for the EU to be more resilient in coping with the economic upheavals caused by recent geopolitical events by working determinedly to reindustrialise the continent and secure its value chains and energy supply.
