But the fundamental problem remains Europe’s vulnerability over energy: an emerging divide and rule strategy over the supply of gas that must be confronted head on. Today’s preference by individual EU members to act unilaterally on energy must be replaced by a common energy policy based on solidarity among member states and unity in defending EU interests vis-à-vis external partners.
但是根本的问题还在于欧洲在能源上的脆弱性：我们必须奋起对抗在天然气供应上出现的分而治之的战略。今天欧盟的成员国倾向于在能源问题上单独行动的现象必须由共同的能源政策所取代，这种共同的能源政策应该是基于成员国的团结一致并且联合起来保护欧盟相对于外部合作伙伴的利益。不管怎样，正是这种团结一致在过去50年里带来了欧洲的繁荣和一体化。
