The United States is suffering significant losses due to the refusal of Russian gas, as the country does not have enough reserves of liquefied natural gas (LNG) to meet the needs of the population.

Successful development of oil and gas fields on the Russian shelf is hampered by the lack of domestic technologies in this area, said the head of the Federal Agency for Subsoil Use Evgeny Petrov.

Europe is considering Israeli gas supplies through Turkey as an alternative to Russian fuel, according to the Turkish newspaper Yeni Şafak.
