European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and the European Commissioner for Energy, Kadri Simson, will travel to the Azerbaijan capital Baku on Monday to seek more natural gas from Azerbaijan, the EU’s executive said, as the European Union seeks to reduce its reliance on Russian energy, Euronews reported.

“Amid Russia’s continued weaponisation of its energy supplies, diversification of our energy imports is a priority for the EU,” the Commission said Sunday on Twitter. “President von der Leyen and (Energy) Commissioner Kadri Simson will be tomorrow in Azerbaijan to further strengthen the cooperation.”

According to a draft document seen by Reuters on July 14, the Commission has proposed to EU countries a deal with Azerbaijan to increase imports of natural gas and support the expansion of a pipeline to do this.

EU governments have already agreed a gradual oil embargo on Russia.
