Poland and other V4 countries will block EU measures that raise energy costs, warns Tusk

"Energy prices in this region must fall," said the Polish prime minister alongside his V4 counterparts.

Poland and other V4 countries will block EU measures that raise energy costs, warns Tusk

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has cautioned that the Central European V4 nations will resist any European Union climate policies that could elevate energy costs. Speaking after a meeting with Hungary, Slovakia, and Czech Republic leaders, Tusk stressed that raising energy prices would weaken competitiveness when the region is already grappling with high electricity expenses.

The three Visegrád Group (V4) countries—Poland, Hungary, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic—have vocally opposed EU measures aimed at increasing energy prices, warning that any policy risking higher energy expenses for Poland and the V4 would be blocked.
