European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, during a conversation with Donald Trump, who won the US presidential election, proposed increasing shipments of American liquefied natural gas (LNG) to the EU instead of relying on energy supplies from Russia,

"We still get a whole lot of LNG via Russia, from Russia," she said in a phone call with U.S. President-elect Donald Trump. "And why not replace it with American LNG, which is cheaper, and brings down our energy prices?

The bloc should green-light a “fully fledged intelligence cooperation service at the EU level,” said former Finnish President Sauli Niinistö in a sweeping new report.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has an idea for reducing the bloc’s consumption of Russian liquefied natural gas: import more from America.

In a strategic move to avert a potential trade conflict, the European Union is exploring increased imports of U.S. liquefied natural gas (LNG) to replace Russian supplies. This initiative comes as Donald Trump returns to the White House,

Ursula von der Leyen has already proposed a new strategy to counter Trump's threat of tariffs - buying more liquefied natural gas (LNG) from the US. Von der Leyen's plan aims to reduce tensions and maintain cooperation between the EU and the US as Trump has previously promised to impose tariffs of up to 20% on foreign goods to protect American jobs.
