/ world today news/ Since the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, Western countries have imposed several rounds of sanctions against Russia, including a ban on the sale of Russian energy products, a ceiling on the price of Russian oil, etc. But in an interview with Channel One, Russian Energy Minister Nikolai Shulginov said that the West never stopped buying energy products from Russia, but simply bought them “in another way.”
In March of this year, Bloomberg reported that some EU countries are actively buying Russian liquefied natural gas. For example, Spain tops the list of buyers in early 2023, followed by Belgium and Bulgaria. Since the outbreak of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, Spain’s LNG imports have increased by 84%.
