Strategic Council Online – Opinion: After Russia attacked Ukraine, the European Union and the United States imposed a series of wide-ranging sanctions against Russia in various economic, commercial, and energy fields. Of course, before Russia attacked Ukraine in 2022, the European Union had imposed other sanctions against Moscow following the annexation of the Crimean Peninsula. However, these sanctions were not applied in the energy field because Russia supplied about 40% of oil and gas to 18 European countries. But after the Russian attack on Ukraine, European and US sanctions were applied in the field of energy more broadly and comprehensively.

Strategic Council Online – Opinion: Europe is entering into its second winter since the valves of Russian gas pipelines were closed while it has managed to register a new record in the volume of its gas reserves. After the Russian attack on Ukraine in February 2022, Europe set a crisis plan to reduce its reliance on Russian fuel. Accordingly, the gas storage level should be completed by 65% by August, 80% by October, and 90% by November 2023. But after the end of this summer, two months ahead of schedule, the gas storage level was completed by 90%.
