Through the pipeline they shut down or thorugh the shadow fleet they've sanctioned? As it stand, Europe is moving in the right direction, not quickly enough for some, but still.

Ban on new Russian gas contracts starting January 1, 2026 End of short-term contracts by June 2026 Complete phase-out by end of 2027.
