The European Union may reconsider the ban on Russian natural gas imports

Golden Ten Data reported on March 4 that Norwegian Energy Minister Terje Aasland stated at a conference in Oslo, the capital of Norway, on March 3 that the European Union has always made it clear that it hopes to break away from its dependence on Russian oil and natural gas, but events that have occurred in the past three or four days have made the situation difficult. In light of the current geopolitical situation, he believes that related discussions will restart. It is reported that Aasland's statement implies that the events of the United States and Israel launching strikes against Iran, and Iran's counterattack, may prompt the EU to resume discussions on the ban of Russian natural gas imports. It is also noted that the situation in the Middle East is affecting natural gas exports from the Gulf region, and European natural gas prices have surged by 75% this week.
