European Union moves to ban Russian gas and nuclear fuel imports

The European Union is taking major steps to cut off energy imports from Russia. The bloc has agreed to a complete ban on Russian gas by 2027, and the European Commission is preparing a separate ban on Russian nuclear fuel.

In response, a member country is planning to sue the EU over the gas ban, calling it 'suicidal.' Meanwhile, the Russian state-owned energy company Gazprom has warned that gas storage levels in the EU are depleting unusually fast.
