Russia, Algeria largest growth in EU gas exports in 2024

Moscow, Nov 14 (UNI) Russia and Algeria became the only two countries to significantly increase their share of gas supplies to the European Union in 2024, by more than 4 percentage points, a RIA Novosti analysis of data from the European Statistical Office (Eurostat) showed on Thursday.
In January-August, the EU reduced gas imports by 1.7 times, down to 49.2 billion euros (
51.8 billion). The main reason for the decline was the deindustrialization of the region. Industrial production in the bloc decreased by 21% from March 2022 to August 2024.
