The European Union says that it will not resume importing gas from Russia even after the war.
"We have legislation that does not allow us to continue importing fossil fuels, especially gas, from Russia."
- claimed the press secretary of the European Commission, Paula Pinho.
At the same time, the European Commission claims that the issue of the possible resumption of activity of the Nord Stream gas pipeline after the end of the war "is not within their authority".
"It is not up to us to decide whether it will function in the European Union or not."
- said Anna-Kaisa Itkonen, another spokeswoman for the European Commission, which is responsible for energy.
