Arctic LNG tankers are keeping Russia’s gas exports alive, many with strong European ties.

Our campaigners Ivan Hortal Sanchez and @olehsavytskyi.bsky.social spoke with journalist Peder Schaefer from The Parliament about how European money continues to enable Russia’s brutal war against Ukraine.

UK's public money should support energy transition and renewables, not Putin's friends and business partners.

No, Hungary, banning Russian gas isn't a violation of EU law - Euromaidan Press Budapest claims the EU overstepped its powers in REPowerEU. The treaties, case law, and Hungary's own choices tell a different story.

On Hungary's haphazard legal case against #REpowerEU Regulation: clinging to Russian oil and gas is not an expression of European solidarityβ€”it is a rejection of it.

The #UK must stop enabling war.

Britain β€˜writing the Kremlin cheques’ with Russian oil loophole The U.K. has imported Β£4 billion of oil products, like jet fuel, made in Indian and Turkish refineries run on Russian crude oil, analysis reveals β€” but a promised ban is still months away.

Highlight: analysis by the @creacleanair.bsky.social (CREA), featured in POLITICO, shows that over the last 3 years, the UK imported Β£1.6 billion worth of "laundered" oil products made with Russian oil at refineries in India and Turkey.

There's no excuse for keeping #refiningloophole open!

Zelenskyy tried to kill NABU. Then it exposed his friend's $100M scheme. - Euromaidan Press Zelenskyy's friend Mindich allegedly ran a $100M Energoatom kickback scheme. NABU's tapes explain July's anti-corruption crackdownβ€”and test whether Ukraine can prosecute presidential allies.

Ukraine must treat the #MindichGate scandal as a turning point. Corruption in #Energoatom is not a secondary problem β€” it is a structural vulnerability that the Kremlin has exploited for decades to penetrate, influence, and ultimately weaken Ukraine from within. Time for shift to #CleanEnergy

The UK plans to ban services for Russian liquefied natural gas exports, including shipping and insurance.
Britain's Foreign Office statement ahead of the G7 meeting:
"The ban [on services for LNG exports] will be phased in over 2026 in lockstep with our European partners".

Despite announced in the 19th sanctions package EU ban on imports of #RussianLNG, supercooled gas cargoes from #Yamal are still reaching EU, generating €3.6 billion in revenue in the past 9 months. This sent €67.7 million in tax to the Kremlin's war chest – funding the killer drones and missiles.

Today, as #COP30 kicks off, #Ukraine has made a bold move that speaks volumes more than pledges: it has imposed #sanctions on key Russian fossil fuel projects in the #Arctic and their enablers. Time to start cleaning up the mess caused by decades of the Kremlin's imperial plunder in the region.

Getting a ban on Russian LNG imports to the EU was a long struggle. We have a win, but it's not over yet. Strong #REPowerEU Regulation is needed to put final nails into the coffins of Russian oil and gas exports.

At the entrance of the Zeebrugge LNG terminal, Greenpeace activists installed a 10-metre-long inflatable, portraying Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump on a gas tanker.

@greenpeace.eu is calling to ban Russian LNG as part of the 19th EU sanctions package and also to avoid a new lock-in to US LNG.

Our Brussels team has been pushing EU leaders this week to speed up the exit from Russian LNG & fossil fuels. Stronger #REPowerEU means drying up Putin’s war chest and ending his war faster.

"So we are banning imports of Russian LNG into European markets. It is time to turn off the tap," von der Leyen said:

Today, Razom We Stand + 60 orgs sent an open letter to #EU leaders: close the deadly loophole in sanctions and ban Russian #LNG in the 19th package.

The Kremlin earned €931B from fossil fuels since 2022.

Is this just business? A British-registered shipping firm transported Russian gas cargoes to Europe, contributing an estimated €150m in taxes to the Kremlin last year.

The EU's 17th #sanctions package is set to target 200 shadow fleet tankers, but Russia uses over 866 ships to dodge the oil price cap.

No Russian #LNG or fossil gas tankers are listed, despite rising imports that fund war on Ukraine.

Sanctions must go further to create real pressure!

Ukraine sanctions Russian LNG giant Novatek while EU continues imports Ukraine sanctioned Russia's second-largest gas producer Novatek on May 1. Will Western allies follow suit or continue funding Putin's war through LNG imports?

Every shipment of Russian LNG carries the cost of genocidal war and climate destruction. If Europe could cut off Gazprom, it canβ€”and mustβ€”do the same with Novatek.

Why and how? Details in OpEd ⬇️
