Thank you. Philip de Sylvin with the Norwegian media and Oslo Klima. I apologize if this was asked yesterday, but with the resumption of the attacks, the hostilities between the United States and Iran surrounding the Strait of Hormuz, does the Commission more concerned now about the security of supply situation becoming acute and the impacts on the energy prices as well, impacting the filling of the gas and oil storage reserves? Thank you.

What we have been saying since the start of the conflict was that the situation is extremely volatile, as we all know. It has been very, very volatile for months now, continues to be so. Still, for the time being, no concerns for our security of supply. Our concern again since the beginning has been the impact on prices, and we have been seeing very, very volatile energy prices as well following this. So what we continue to do, what we have been doing since the beginning, is to have very, very frequent meetings with our member states, with stakeholders, with industry as well, as well as International Energy Agency to get their kind of wider reading as well.
And we continue to do this. The previous oil coordination group was last week, and there are very intense contacts obviously on this. But yes, absolutely, our main concern is on the prices. But obviously, given the volatility of the situation, it's very, very difficult to make any further predictions of what impacts it might have.
