The target of importing 250 billion dollars worth of energy products a year does not seem very credible

The trade agreement concluded between the United States and the European Union provides for an increase in imports of energy products to 750 billion dollars over three years. The objective does not seem very credible. In 2024, Europe will have imported between 90 and 100 billion dollars worth of energy products (gas, oil, various fuels, nuclear services). Stopping imports of fossil fuels from Russia would only release 22 billion dollars in potential imports, provided that the United States takes Russia's place. Imports of nuclear reactors could amount to as much as $300 billion, provided that all the projects on the table come to fruition, bearing in mind that the purchases will be spread over ten years or so.
