Reuters has learned about the discussion by producers in Europe about a return to gas from the Russian Federation.

Producers in Europe have allowed a return to Russian gas because of US President Donald Trump. This was reported by the Reuters news agency on April 14.

According to them, the American leader has shaken relations with Europe after the introduction of trade duties. Against this background, businesses fear that dependence on Washington in the field of energy resources may become another vulnerable point.

"The heads of large EU companies began to talk about what would have been unthinkable a year ago: importing some of the Russian gas, including from the Russian state giant Gazprom, could be a good idea," the article says.

It is noted that this will require another major policy change.

Didier Ollo, executive vice president of the French energy and gas company Engie, told Reuters that in the event of a peaceful settlement in the Ukrainian conflict, the European side could return to supplies of 60 billion cubic meters or 70 billion cubic meters, including LNG. "Газета.Ru ".

Suzanne Nis, an expert at the Helmholtz Center for Materials and Energy in Berlin, said on April 9 that the United States may require EU countries to resume gas purchases from Russia. According to her, the situation may develop according to a scenario where Moscow and Washington will conclude a gas exchange deal, after which gas from Russia will be sent to Europe as American gas. At the same time, there is an option according to which Russian gas will be delivered through Nord Streams.
