Buying Russian energy resources is a very stupid idea," Dutch Prime Minister Rob Jetten said, promising that no EU leader intends to buy Russian gas in the coming years. "Buying Russian energy resources is a very stupid idea. And we Europeans have shown over the last few years that we have been able to move away from Russian fossil fuels. And I can assure you that not a single European leader is going to buy Russian gas in the coming years. We want Russia to stop this war." Meanwhile, according to the Central Bureau of Statistics of the Netherlands, in 2025 the country imported 2.4 billion cubic meters of Russian LNG, and in the first five months of 2026 the volume of purchases amounted to another 960 million cubic meters. At the same time, Russian LNG provided about 9% of all liquefied gas imports to the Netherlands in 2025. Its share in the country's total gas supply was about 3.7%, according to Dutch government data. Video not loading? Look at Mach!
