Russia will look for ways to circumvent illegal sanctions -as it describes them- imposed by the EU on its liquefied natural gas (LNG) businesses, announced today the Kremlin adding that any measures would have an impact on European industry.
The European Commission’s next sanctions package is expected to propose curbs on Russian liquefied natural gas for the first time, including a ban on transshipments to the EU and measures against three Russian LNG projects, three EU sources said on Thursday.
“Attempts to force Russia out of energy markets and into more expensive markets are ongoingKremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters.
According to him, any new EU restrictions will benefit the US and mean European industry pays more for its natural gas.
“Of course, in any case, we will look for ways to circumvent these illegal barriers, unfair competition and illegal actions”Peskov concluded.
