" 'We have no interest to prolong the trilateral gas transit agreement with Russia, which will expire by the end of this year,' Simson told an EU Parliament committee meeting. 'Based on our preliminary analytics, there are alternative solutions to supply these countries who still receive some gas through the Ukrainian route,' she said. Europe is attempting to rid itself of Russian gas imports, after Russia slashed gas deliveries to Europe since its Feb. 2022 invasion of Ukraine."

"Severe and incurable short memories" are indeed in evidence. The last article and quote above it is from ten days ago.

Well Hungary, Slovakia, and Austria continue to import Russian oil too right?
Thats their problem, and it shows...
They are black mailed (Hungary especially) to a humiliating degree by Russia... which give them gas.. as longs as Orban obeys...

No wonder Orban is so soft and cuddly with Russia... 95% of Hungary energy imports come from Russia... He is a slave.

The rest of Europe can these days entirely survive with alternative means to Russian energy, even though it’s still dripping in a bit. No one cares about Russian energy for Europes future anymore.
