In recent years, the European Union has intensified efforts to reduce its dependence on Russian gas through the development of a credible exit strategy. Following Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Brussels introduced successive sanctions packages, diversification roadmaps and increasingly turned to US LNG as its key supplier, with American cargoes accounting for more than 60% of EU LNG imports by 2026, up from 29% in 2021.
