⛽️🇪🇺💸🇷🇺 Russia maintains its position as one of the three largest gas suppliers to Europe, along with Norway and the US — Bloomberg
In October, the EU purchased gas from Russia for 1.3 billion euros, which is 21% more than in October 2023
Thus, #Russia became the second gas supplier to the #EU in October with a share of 21.2% — #Algeria is in 1st place
🔹EU countries paid €701.5 million for LNG from Russia in October, which is 28% more than in September 2024 and 26% more than in October 2023
The main importers were:
🇫🇷 #France (€366 million - the maximum since December 2022)
🇪🇸 #Spain (€141.5 million)
🇳🇱 #Netherlands (€93.6 million).
🇧🇪 #Belgium reduced its purchase of LNG from Russia by almost half - to €73.1 million.
🔸 Russian pipeline gas imports, on the contrary, fell to a minimum since June 2024 (€603 million)
The leaders in purchases were:

🇬🇷 #Greece (€150 million)
🇸🇰 #Slovakia (€124 million).
🇮🇹 #Italy reduced gas imports from Russia to a minimum since the beginning of the year — €85 million.

At the same time, the cost of purchasing Russian LNG for the EU has increased by 150% in three years due to an increase in prices and volumes of LNG supplies
