“Energy consumption is increasing.

What happens next - depends on whether there will be deliveries from Russia to Europe, whether Europe will impose restrictions on Russian LNG - also matters, ”he explained.

Mitrahovich also believes that if Europe “tryes to revive its industry”, then the price will rise.

“If he sacrifices the remaining industry, turns it off, then the price of gas may be lower,” the source said.
