In the Putin's today's order on that matter, in chapter 6 we could clearly read the exact process of payments:
Иностранный покупатель производит перевод средств на специальный валютный счет типа «К» в иностранной валюте, указанной в контракте на поставку природного газа, а уполномоченный банк на основании поручения иностранного покупателя, полученного в порядке, установленном правилами уполномоченного банка, осуществляет продажу иностранной валюты, поступившей от иностранного покупателя на такой счет, на организованных торгах, проводимых публичным акционерным обществом «Московская Биржа ММВБ – РТС», зачисляет вырученные средства в рублях на специальный рублевый счет типа «К» этого иностранного покупателя и производит перевод зачисленных средств в рублях на открытый российским поставщиком в уполномоченном банке рублевый счет.
Foreign buyer do a trasaction to the special foreign currency account of type "K" in the foreign currency, stated in a gas supply contract, and authorized bank on the basis of order of foreign buyer, according to the rules of authorized bank, sell that currency of foreign buyer on the stock exchange "Moscow Stock MMVB-RTS" , put received funds on the special rouble account of type "K" of that foreign buyer and transfer them to the rouble account of supplier
Shortly - Europe/US pay in EUR/USD as usual, but not directly to Gazprom, but to the authorized bank not under the sanctions. Than, that bank exchange USD/EUR to RUB and transfer them to Gazprom account.
Even more short - Putin forbid Gazprom to receive foreign currency directly. Gazprom now have to pay additional money to bankers to buy the USD/EUR it need for equipment and other stuff.
So, that is just a complete hoax. Nothing is treating the global hoax fiat currency system.
I predict that before, believing that Putin is just a coward NWO shill and never will do anything to harm them.
So, all in all, Russia finally lost an unique chance to broke that shitty world fiat system and completely change the rules of the game, But, obviously Putin was not allowed to do that. Miracle did not happen, everything is according to NWO plan.
Sorry, may be that is not what you want to hear, but so it goes.
Depends on what you want to do with it, if you want to use it for some sort of power generation yeah LNG and hydrogen is a losing proposition.
if it's for production of plastics and other chemicals, getting it in liquid form might not be so bad.
You are right in that we should just get our own gas, the Netherlands should just reimburse the people who get their homes damaged from the fracking and just go full bore for a couple of years while we transition away from gas for heat and other energy.
They still have the infrastructure in place but are in the middle of shutting it down for political reasons.
Having said that, I'd just open nordstream 2 buy cheap Russian gas but scrap gas as an intermediary for the energy transition and hasten it's phase out to a decade instead of 2050 in favor of nuclear
It's not perfect but the cons are extremely exaggerated.
And the amount of nuclear waste generated by industry and healthcare are severely under estimated.
So not using nuclear power while having to deal with tonnes of nuclear waste anyway is dumb.
That is already not even a case.

finally, Central Bank of Russian Federation officially owned by "unnamed owners" and submit only to IMF orders.
They will charge both. Twice. As usual. Gazprom will be charged for transfer from that type "K" rouble account to Gazprom account.
Gazprom buy a lot of Western equipment. So, it will be charged second time when will need a EUR/USD to pay for equipment.
Russia and China are not good guys.
There are no any good guys at all. Only parasites and people they consume.
There are mostly no good guys, especially in positions of 'power' but that does not mean to say the goodness is all gone.
Of course not all goodness gone, there are a lot of it around, but it mostly powerless, cheated and confused.
At that level there are no good guys.
it's a bunch of leeches fighting who gets to squeeze the 7 billion of us the hardest for our work.

It's nation level technology, one of the few things france got right.

Looks like Russkan propaganda was wrong again
Do you agree that Russia did not shut down the gas?
