Due to Trump Trump Companies EU can return to importing Russian gas - Reuters

To spread: large European companies consider the possibility of restoring Russian gas imports against the background of new tariffs imposed by US President Donald Trump. About it reports Reuters. According to the newspaper, the EU is afraid that the state dependence on the supply of liquefied natural gas will make it vulnerable. In addition, negotiations with Katar on the gas issue were also not fruitful.

At the same time, after the EU, after a full -scale invasion of the Russian Federation, Ukraine has pledged to stop importing Russian energy by 2027. Currently, European officials are expecting "reasonable peace in Ukraine". In particular, the executive president of the French company Engie Didier Ollo said: "If there is a reasonable peace in Ukraine, we can return to flows of 60 billion cubic meters, perhaps 70, a year, including LNG.

" At the same time, the official assured that the return of imports is not fully referred to: according to him, before the war in Ukraine Russia provided 40% of EU gas needs, now only 20-25% is referred to. Meanwhile, Germany is talking about a forced reduction in the chemical industry and the need to resolve the situation. "We are in a serious crisis, we cannot wait," said, in particular, CEO of Infraleun, Christoph Gunter.

Officially, the topic of Germany's return to Russian gas is a "taboo", but it is worth noting that in the local elections in February this year, about a third of Germany voted for Russian political force to Russia. It should be noted that Financial Times reporters reported on April 14 that the Russian budget risks losing trillion rubles due to the fall of oil prices due to the new US customs policy.
