The EU will completely replace Russian oil and gas with American products!

EU Commission President von der Leyen stated that in order to reduce the import tariff of American goods from 30% to 15%, the European Commission has committed to completely replacing Russian oil and gas with American energy products.

"The agreement includes the EU purchasing a large amount of American liquefied natural gas and nuclear fuel, while completely abandoning Russian gas and oil."

Von der Leyen believes that EU countries are still buying too much Russian natural gas, and Russian petroleum products are entering the EU through back channels. She emphasized that the EU no longer needs Russian resources, as American liquefied natural gas is much better.

Von der Leyen confirmed that she has committed to the US president to purchase $75 billion worth of American liquefied natural gas, but this will be a three-year trial until the end of her term, i.e., about $25 billion per year.
