The pressure to impose sanctions, a furious war and an increasingly close Trump presidency have satiated the thirst of the block by Russian gas.
BRUSSELS — Europe is buying Russian gas at an unprecedented rate in 2025, spending billions of dollars the Kremlin can use to fund its war in Ukraine just weeks after the end of a major transit agreement raised hopes the continent may break its dependency on Moscow.
The knowledge compiled through the Kpler Assets Intelligence Company and analyzed through Politicus reveals that the first 15 days of 2025, the 27 countries of the European Union imported 837,300 metric tons of HERBAL LICUTILY fuel of Russia.
That marks a record high, up from the 760,100 tons brought in during the same period last year, fueling concerns that Western nations aren’t doing enough to squeeze Russian funds as Moscow’s war enters its fourth year.
The figures occur after an old agreement that allows Russia to pump fuel to the EU pipes that Cross Ukraine ended on January 1, Kyiv stating that he would not negotiate an extension. This has exerted more pressure on countries to buy marine LNG, delivered through the oil tanker in the Russian ports.
