Supply and demand my friend. The issue Russia has is that they sold their gas via pipelines to Europe. Those pipelines do not connect to many other places besides Turkey and they also have few LNG terminals. The pipelines to China are in a different network, so they can not just move the gas to China. Therefore it actually increase the global gas supply, if Europe buys Russian pipeline gas in large quantities again. More supply means lower global prices.

One of the NordStream pipelines is also still around.

They do understand that it is cheaper to transport gas via pipeline than via LNG shipping? If Russian gas is added to the European gas market it is going to replace LNG. Most of that comes from the US.

It however clearly shows that Europe has to lower fossil fuel consumption quickly and long term.

What law are they breaking?

Europe can do it as well. The Automated Transfer Vehicle build to resupply to ISS can dock. All you need to do to kill a satellite is to dock with too much speed.

That is the desired outcome. The EU has fairly strict consumer protection laws for all sorts of items. A container usually containers one sort of item. So it takes about as long to check the container with a thousand items, than a single parcel with one. Hence the EU wanting to ship them over like that.

This is most likely just rhetoric. Currently half the gas supply of the EU comes via LNG shipments and transport via pipeline is just cheaper. At the same time the EU clearly has the LNG infrastructure to replace Russian gas in place at that point. Not to mention wanting to reduce fossil fuels like gas anyway. At the same time volumes will be much lower, as the EU has signed long term gas contracts with other countries. So this would not lead to a dependence unless something goes horribly wrong. At the same time it is a good way to funnel reparations to Ukraine. Like the EU buys gas from Russia. Russia gets a share which basically covers production cost and the rest is handed directly to Ukraine.
