By all accounts, 2023 will be a year of endless debates about energy relations between the European Union and Russia. On this edition of "The IR thinker", I am curious about Russian LNG in Europe, is it a sign of hypocrisy in the European Union or a smart Russian business move?

I am joined by Andreas Schroeder, Head of Energy Analytics at ICIS – Independent Commodity Intelligence Services; a global company with 150 years of experience in delivering market intelligence. Andreas is a leading expert on LNG issues, and I highly recommend connecting with him on LinkedIn, where he posts tremendous sources of knowledge.
