   The changes add calls for tailored support, industrial competitiveness, and energy transition, and expand the EGF's role in broader policy responses. A new background section is added, detailing the EGF procedure and Belgium's application, including a separate Tupperware case. The text clarifies bankruptcy details and adds reasons for Liberty's difficulties, including energy dependence. Other changes are formal, correcting spelling and percentage formatting.
