He pointed out that the best way to confront these challenges lies in rationalizing energy consumption by everyone, stressing that this is not the role of the government alone, but rather a shared responsibility between the state and citizens to ensure the continuity of production, the stability of markets, and to alleviate any future financial pressures.
He continued: We must all be aware of the upcoming challenges and work collectively to rationalize consumption without compromising productive activities and basic services for citizens.
