US Envoys Push to Resume Russian Gas Flows to Europe via Pipeline

US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner reportedly sought Moscow and Kiev's approval in September for a plan to resume Russian gas transit to Europe via pipeline, potentially circumventing EU sanctions through American intermediaries. The EU had committed to abandoning Russian gas by end of 2026, and transit via Ukraine ceased in early 2025. If confirmed, this marks a significant reversal of Western energy policy toward Russia, with major implications for European energy security and transatlantic relations.
