. this would involve having an upper and lower price limit, which will be lower than current rates. poland belgium, in leon, greece, or calling for a dynamic corridor which will apply to all wholesale gas sales and not just those agreed with main suppliers. there's another proposal, which is a price kept specifically on gas used for generating electricity, spain and portugal. i've been trying it since june, and germany has gone ahead with nearly 200000000000 dollar package to help businesses and consumers. let's speak to step boston. she's joining us from prague . so today's agenda is very significant step, isn't it? well absolutely, and there's a lot of division among did 27 you members as you are pointing out, they agree basically only on one thing and that this, that the energy price, the gas price has to go down. but the way to get there is very much a heated debate. i have to say germany than islands denmark,

a really opposing this price cap. they're really worried that supplies of gas a will be in danger if you apply such a price gap. but meanwhile, these rich country, so to say, have now it's billions of dollars of packages to support their consumers, their people, their populations to deal with a high energy prices. and this is really gone, not the well with the polish, for example, the italians, the grease, the more poor countries who simply don't have that kind of budget to how their own population. so what here is at stake in a park is the solidarity among the new members, and that's why president of, for the european commissioners, left under lay and really called on a unity. and she also reminded all the members that europe is basically in this situation, because all of that, russia's invasion in ukraine, and this is what she had to say. energy prices ask,

i rocketing. but if you look over the last 7 months, you can see that russia has deliberately and systematically cut the gas supply to the european union. but we've been able to compensate. we've been able to compensate with philadelphia. storage is by 90 percent. now it is time to discuss how we can limit the peaks in the energy prices. and the manipulation of energy prices by puting. so differ proposals on the table for dealing with these very high gas prices. as we've been saying, how likely is it that they actually find common ground? is there optimism? well, this is a real tester for the unity within that the e u. and there are a lot of questions if there will be a common approach, a common solution i've been speaking to darcia diplomats for example, and a half their doubt. they said the polish italian greek and belgium proposal that's now on the table about these fluctuating fries, caps, or is interesting,
