The most important thing is that the EU has already completely replaced 2/3 of the gas supplies from the country of the terrorist. Those. not a one-time purchase of the necessary gas somewhere, but globally rebuilt gas supply channels. 1/3 of course still remains, but this is a matter of a fairly short time. Yesterday there was information that back in the summer of 2022, the EU believed that the replacement of gas supplies from Russia would take up to 7 years, but it turned out that they went through this path in a little more than half a year.~~~
Replacing the gas won't be very difficult. But the cost matters. Back in 2020, EU nations paid around €100 per thousand cubic meters of Russian pipeline natural gas. And a few weeks back, they were paying €3,000 per thousand cubic meters for LNG from Qatar. If you are happy with this, then I don't have anything to say. As of now, there is a limited supply of natural gas. And EU is competing for this limited supply, with East Asian nations. Some of the consumers who previously shipped gas to East Asian nations such as Japan and South Korea are diverting the supplies now to EU.
