US Explores Plan To Reroute Russian Gas To Europe Via Ukraine

Times of India - India · india

The United States is reportedly exploring a plan to reintroduce Russian natural gas into the European market through pipelines that cross Ukraine. This initiative is part of broader efforts to broker an energy truce between Russia and Ukraine ahead of winter and potentially advance peace negotiations. The proposal involves a US intermediary handling gas sales, potentially bypassing European sanctions and offering American investors a stake. However, it faces significant opposition due to the EU's policy to phase out Russian gas purchases by 2027 and concerns over energy dependence.
