And Russia is making a lot of money sending LNG to Europe. In 2022, the EU's expenditure on Russian gas and LNG more than doubled due to the price crisis, reaching €16.1bn. Payments for LNG imports alone tripled to €6.2bn, raising questions about how much more non-European countries pay for Russian LNG transshipped through Zeebrugge and Montoir-de-Bretagne.
