Japan can stop purchasing natural gas from the Russian Federation - the media

It is expected that the suspension of natural gas supply from the Russian Federation is supplemented to the routes of ships, including through the Black and Azov Seas, as well as in the East of Russia. Japanese buyers of Russian liquefied natural gas can be left without goods, as country insurance companies refuse to cover the risks of transporting PPGs through the Russian-Ukrainian war. Bloomberg writes about it.

The publication reports that since January 1, Japanese insurance companies - Tokio Marine Holdings Inc. , Sompo Holdings Inc. and MS & Ad Insurance Group Holdings Inc - will stop insuring military risks in the territorial waters of Russia and Ukraine. This event is expected to be stopped on the routes of ships, including through the Black and Azov Seas, as well as in the East of Russia.

According to experts, further fuel supply will create additional difficulties for Japan, meager in resources, which depends largely on imports, especially on Sakhalin. Therefore, Tokio Marine & Nichido Fire Insurance Co. , Tokio Marine, and one of the insurance companies, began negotiations with reinsurers to restore underwriting and received positive feedback. Recall that Russia wants to restore the work of the Yamal - Europe gas pipeline.

In Russia, it is believed that the work of the gas pipeline has previously been stopped for political reasons, but due to gas deficiency in Europe, the Russian Federation is ready to share fuel. In mid -December, Focus also wrote that Moldova is ready to sue the Russian Gazprom for failure to comply with the contract. According to Viceremier Andrew Spring, the concern provoked an energy crisis in the country, reducing the volume of gas supply.
