Fico warns that if the EU cancels Russian energy supplies, the US will resell them at high prices

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico warned that the EU's plan to gradually remove Russia's status as an energy supplier will ultimately only result in the United States reselling Russian oil and gas to Europe at higher prices.

Speaking in Bratislava on Sunday, Fico said the U.S. "has a huge interest in buying all transit infrastructure across the entire European continent." "So Russia will supply oil and gas to Americans at standard prices, while Americans will sell them to us at high-profit U.S. surcharges. Have we become so foolish?"

"The share of Russian liquefied gas in the European market is increasing," Fico pointed out, highlighting the hypocrisy of the EU unilaterally pressuring countries like Slovakia to restrict Russian fuel supplies. "We can't, but France can buy liquefied gas from Russia."
