Russia on Thursday called on the European Union to reconsider the planned ban on imports of liquefied natural gas from Russia. Moscow pointed to the low level of gas reserves in Europe and the sharp rise in prices of this commodity. hnonline.sk ↗
The call was supported by Russian political and energy officials. They claim that the ban could come at a time when European countries are facing a tense situation on the gas market and need to replenish their reserves before the next heating season. novinky.cz ↗
The European Union plans to restrict imports of Russian LNG as part of a broader effort to reduce energy dependence on Moscow. The measure is part of the response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine and efforts to diversify energy supplies.
The Russian side argues that a complete ban could worsen gas availability on the European market and contribute to further price increases. At the same time, however, European countries are facing pressure to gradually end energy purchases from Russia.
Further developments will depend on the decision of EU member states and the situation on the gas market. The Union will have to weigh the energy risks of the planned ban against the political goal of limiting Russia's revenues from energy exports.
