INTRODUCTION
The Russian Federation is the EU's most important single supplier of energy products, accounting for over 25% of the EU consumption of oil and gas, whereas Europe is the most important destination for Russia's energy exports. Although the EU and Russia are diversifying their energy deliveries, the share of the Russian hydrocarbons and conversion products on the EU market will remain high in the future, considering the geographical proximity of Russia and the EU Member States, the existing energy transport infrastructure and the interdependence between the energy markets. In 1994 EU and Russia signed the Partnership and Cooperation Agreement which among other things covers also energy issues. The agreement underpins the Energy Dialogue between EU and Russia launched in October 2000 and which consists of three joint thematic groups that report to the EU Energy Commissioner and to the Russian Energy Minister. The EU – Russia Energy Dialogue, established in 2000 is the main instrument to address major issues of mutual concern in the energy sector and strengthen cooperation on issues related to sustainability and continued reliability of production, distribution, transportation and efficient use of energy. These issues also cover topics such as the participation of the EU companies in the Russian upstream market, access of Russian companies to the EU downstream market and security of demand and supply. Energy sector development is also addressed in light of the current economic crisis. The existing Partnership and Cooperation Agreement is to be replaced by a new EU-Russia agreement currently under negotiation which will guide the overall relations between the two sides. In this agreement a special chapter is foreseen on energy. Several interruptions of the transit of Russian energy supplies to the EU have taken place in recent years. Disagreements on the terms of sale and transit of Russian gas through Ukraine have led to gas supply interruptions in January 2006, March 2008 and January 2009. While the interruption in 2008 was entirely absorbed by Ukraine, the interruptions in 2006 and 2009 affected the EU Member States to varying degrees, with the gas crisis in 2009 becoming the most serious to affect Europe. Additionally, in 2007 as well as in 2009 and 2010, oil deliveries through Belarus were affected for a few days.
