What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Trump administration is considering resuming Russian gas supplies to Europe as a possible economic incentive in negotiations aimed at ending the war in Ukraine. This proposal could involve restoring gas transit through Ukraine, with generated revenue potentially allocated to Kyiv. European officials have rejected the idea, although the United States is also examining the possibility of restarting the Nord Stream pipeline.
