"Within two years, Europe will abandon Russian gas," Borrell declared in an interview with Sky News Arabia.
According to the politician, the EU plans to use different gas supplies. "We are trying to reduce Europe's dependence on Russian energy, not to ban it completely," - Mr. Borrell added.
Russia is the largest gas exporter to Europe, supplying about 40% of the gas consumed in the region through several routes: Nord Stream (directly leading to Germany via the Baltic Sea), the gas transit system via Ukraine, Yamal-Europe and Turkish Stream (via the Black Sea)./.
