Ukraine ends Russian gas pipeline to Europe - but how much will it cost Moscow?

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

55% : However, the impact is already being felt in parts of EU candidate country Moldova, which was getting Russian gas via Ukraine.
54% : Other than the EU, Russia's biggest pipeline gas exports go to Turkey and Belarus, while LNG exports are largely reliant on sales to China and Japan.
50% : Gas can still travel from Russia to Europe via the TurkStream pipeline, but no longer through Ukraine, cutting gas imports to the EU by around 14 billion cubic meters.
48% : Russian gas is no longer flowing to EU states through Ukraine following the expiration of a five-year deal, closing an energy route that has existed since the end of the Soviet Union in 1991.
44% : A Global Witness investigation found that 130 million barrels of refined products were imported into the EU from refineries which process Russian crude oil in 2023, worth an estimated €1.1 billion in tax revenue to the Kremlin.
22% : Although the EU has banned oil imports from Russia, numerous reports suggest that Russian oil is still reaching the EU via back channels.
