An EUobserver analysis argues that Europe's shift from Russian to US liquefied natural gas has created a new strategic dependency that threatens EU and Ukrainian security. The piece contends that over-reliance on US supply exposes Europe to price volatility and geopolitical leverage, though it is an opinion piece rather than a confirmed policy shift. The claim is emerging and reflects a growing debate over energy diversification.
