US officially denies natural gas to Europe

12

The US government cannot force domestic natural gas producers to redirect exports from Asia to Europe. This conclusion can be drawn from the statement of the senior adviser to the US State Department for energy security Amos Hoxtin. The diplomat noted that Washington does not have the ability to help the Europeans overcome the energy crisis.

The US government does not instruct our companies on whom to sell (natural gas)

- declared Hoxtin.



At the same time, the senior adviser to the State Department pointed to the important role that the United States plays in the global LNG market, boasting of the volumes of gas produced.

The USA is already significant, one of the largest exporters to world markets and retains a fairly significant share of the world market

- said the diplomat.

However, it is not clear how such a statement can help the Europeans left without gas. Moreover, at the moment the United States are negotiating with China on the supply of additional volumes of LNG, which in turn will deprive Europe of even that small amount of American liquefied gas that still enters the Old World.

      Nothing personal just business.

      Everything is like everywhere else, the final phase of dancing around the finally completed SP-2. The Americans were against it, hence the "cold" reaction. Despite all the intrigues, Gazprom has completed the construction, now it is also filling its own worth. Both those and others muddy the waters. Normal, it will settle down. Europeans have a lesson - you can trust everyone, trust anyone.
      We need to work more efficiently on alternative sources of energy. With the shutdown of nuclear power plants, they got a little fiddled with. It was possible simply not to extend the resource and turn it off according to plan, and not all at once with one stroke of the pen. That would be a smooth transition. Now you have to pay more. recourse A chain increase in prices for absolutely everything except yachts is coming. The rich will get richer, the poor will get poorer.

    It's cool, for their gayropean sixes, mattress mats don't have gas, but they demand that Russia increase supplies))) I understand that impudence is the second happiness, but not to such an extent.

    The point is not that the Chshasovites refused to supply their LNG, but that they are commanding the Russian Federation to increase supplies to the EU.

      And instead of sieging the rudeness of Western partners, the Russian Federation is doing everything in its power to fulfill the order of the Sshasovites - the transit through the Ukrainian gas transportation system has been increased by 15%, it has increased transit along the Turkish Stream, is seeking certification and commissioning of the northern streams and is constantly justified

    Are you a pro?
    Don't make the euro-ass laugh. The bottom line is that America is like you a friend, today is and tomorrow is not. So that all your friends like America throw you after your words "(the point is not that") a euro-patriot.
