    Thank you for the article. It brought up something quite interesting that i wasn’t aware off before:

    But why does Spain rely so heavily on Russia despite the almost global disapproval? The answer lies in this country’s extensive regasification capacity, which stands at 67.1 bcm - the largest in all of Europe. This enables Spain to receive LNG shipments on behalf of other countries that lack the necessary infrastructure, making it a critical hub for European energy trade.

    looking a bit into it i found this article:

    So it seems that Spain is also taking the flak here for other EU countries that want to profit from Russian gas but not be directly associated with it.
