Foreign media: In October 2025, the amount of liquefied natural gas (LNG) imported from Russia by China surged to a new historical high, increasing by 76.7% year-on-year to 1.3 million tons. This was the first time that China's monthly imports from Russia exceeded 1 million tons.

Russian LNG accounted for 22.5% of China's total imports, almost double the 11.4% of the same period last year, and increased by 33.1% month-on-month. Despite the significant increase in import volume, the import value increased by only 31.8% year-on-year, indicating that Russia may be selling LNG to China at a substantial discount.
