      Isn’t Russia still seing gas to Europa? Over different pipelines I mean. I remember hearing about some exceptions to the sanctions for eastern European countries.

        They’re selling gas through other countries, like China and Turkey who buy Russian LNG and resell it to Europe, but the US took up most of the void left by the attack on Nord Stream.
