After a sharp reduction in the export of Russian gas in response to the military aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, Europe will not return to purchasing energy resources from the Russian Federation. 

This was stated in an interview with the Financial Times by trader Pierre Andurand, whose firm Andurand Capital manages assets worth $1.4 billion.

Anduran noted that European countries are quickly learning to live without Russian gas. 

"I think Putin has lost the energy war. Very high natural gas and electricity prices in Europe were extremely bad for the world economy, but now they are back to more reasonable levels," the trader said.

Pierre Andurand also noted that after gaining independence from Russian energy resources, Europe is unlikely to want to return to them.

Thus, Vladimir Putin lost his leverage.

"Russia has lost its biggest customer forever and it will take at least 10 years to build a sufficient number of pipelines to Asia," Anduran added.

According to Pierre Andurand, as soon as China becomes the only buyer of Russian gas, Beijing will be able to determine its price.

It will be recalled that

Bulgaria

announced the start of construction of a new gas pipeline to Serbia.

In this way, the countries want to reduce their dependence on the gas of Russia, the aggressor country.

Turkey has discovered a new oil field in the area of ​​Mount Gabar

, in the north-east of the country.

The energy resource is estimated at 12 billion dollars.
