Russia shapes Europe’s #energy debate through “expert” narratives, not just lobbying. Our new Razom We Stand report exposes the impact. Time to act: ban Russian #LNG, sanction #Novatek, boost transparency.

One more horrific night for #Ukraine. At least 16 people were killed and injured in Odesa and Kyiv, including children. Homes burning, regions without power. This is the cost of inaction. Stronger #sanctions can help stop this aggression and save lives.

In March 2026, EU importers paid Russia EUR 1.3B for fossil fuels. Spain (EUR 355M), Hungary (EUR 297), France (EUR 287M), and Belgium (EUR 219M) led the list. This must stop now. We expect the 20th EU #sanctions package soon with stronger and stricter restrictions.

After Orban’s defeat, the #EU must unblock the €90bn loan to Ukraine and pass the 20th #sanctions on Russia. #Hungary still imported €297m of Russian fossil fuels in March. People are still dying every day, and allies must give Ukraine a fighting chance to win.

New in FT: More evidence shows that when the EU implements its coming Russian energy ban, the Yamal LNG project would struggle to find other buyers. This could signal its demise, further drying up funds for war on Ukraine. Thx to Sebastian Rötters + #Urgewald for your work!

Sadly, France is still a key entry point for Russian #LNG into the EU. In 2025, it imported €3.16bn, far more than in 2023–24, becoming the EU’s top Yamal LNG buyer (42%). France helps fund Russia’s war, even as it continues to terrorise Ukraine. This must stop now. razomwestand.com/europes-russ...

Russia is attacking #Ukraine: 80+ drones, 20+ missiles, dozens injured, a vet clinic hit, 20 animals dead. Meanwhile, the EU paid Russia €932M in Feb 2026 for gas fueling these attacks. Allies must stay strong & keep Russian #sanctions.

Russian energy influence hasn’t disappeared, it’s gone underground. Shadow fleets, hidden companies, and quiet lobbying still shape Europe’s #energy choices. Our new report reveals how it works. Sanctions must not weaken. razomwestand.com/new-report-f...

Svitlana Romanko & Ivan Hortal Sanchez (@razomwestand.bsky.social) with an important reminder of why ending the dependency from (Putin's) #fossilfuels & fighting for #renewables & clean energy is a peace project too! #CERAWeek #BreakTheSystem #BuildTheFuture @parentsforfuture.de @caneurope.org

Zeebrugge remains the EU’s largest entry point for Russian #LNG (€1.7B in 2025). At the same time, Russia launched 900+ drones and missiles at Ukraine in 3 days. Europe must end this dependency. razomwestand.com/europes-russ...

‼️Ukrainian group @BlackseanewsNet have used OSINT research to now publish a new Russian Oil Tanker Tracking Database, exposing a staggering list of 1,753 tankers transporting Russian crude oil and petroleum products. 🛢️ 🛑Violators must be sanctioned. tankers.blackseanews.net

🔴 Our Founder Svitlana Romanko: I’m shocked that the European Commission has delayed decisions to: 1. implement the 20th Sanctions package 2. move forward with REPowerEU roadmaps to phasing out russian energy. I’ve just issued a statement to the press, see it here:
razomwestand.com/concern-grow...

Despite pledges to end Russian energy imports, the EU has spent €200B+ in 4 years, including €65B+ since 2022. Our new report exposes the gap between commitments and reality. razomwestand.com/europes-russ...

Our Dr Romanko reacted to the Scottish gov's weak answer: "It shouldn't be the job of the Scottish gov to repeat weak excuses from Russia-friendly companies like Total. Scotland must end all business as usual with Russia-friendly companies." parliament.scot/chamber-and-... @ross-greer.bsky.social

Europe’s fossil gas fuels war & climate damage. Methane leaks worsen the crisis. Razom We Stand, with Iryna Ptashnyk, joins #Ukraine2EU to align Ukraine’s methane policy with the EU.

We are #hiring a Senior Communications Specialist! Razom We Stand offers a fantastic opportunity to join our team and stand against fossil-fuel-funded aggression. This is a full-time, remote position. Please follow the instructions in the link to submit your application.

Razom We Stand releases a new investigative report, “Fuelling Russia’s Oil and Gas Influence in Europe.” It shows how the Kremlin still shapes #energy policy and public debate in Europe, despite #sanctions after the full-scale invasion of #Ukraine. Read more 👇 razomwestand.com/new-report-f...

The #EU must permanently shut down the Druzhba pipeline. Reopening it would send billions to Russia’s war machine while Ukrainians pay with their lives. Prioritise peace and energy security, close the Druzhba pipeline. Strengthen #sanctions. razomwestand.com/eu-must-slam...

As the #US eases energy #sanctions on Russia, Razom We Stand urges stronger, not weaker sanctions to cut fossil fuel funding for Putin & help end the war in #Ukraine faster. Read the full statement👇

Russian intelligence operatives and Wagner veterans are reportedly on Russia’s shadow fleet tankers in NATO waters. As @olehsavytskyi.bsky.social writes for @euromaidanpress.bsky.social, these ships are part of Russia’s hybrid warfare system. Europe must intercept them now. Stop the shadow fleet.

🇷🇺 NEW | Monthly analysis of Russian fossil fuel exports & sanctions 📉 In February 2026, Russia’s monthly fossil fuel export revenues saw a 7% month-on-month increase to EUR 492 mn per day. This was despite only a 1% month-on-month increase in volumes

Razom We Stand & activists joined Fridays for Future Wilhelmshaven to protest #LNG. 🇺🇸 Most gas comes from the US, replacing one costly fossil dependency with another. Real #energy security = cheaper #renewables, efficiency & electrification, not more gas terminals. razomwestand.com/wilhelmshave...

Ukraine’s recovery must rely on a modern, decentralised clean #energy system. Renewables are both a #climate solution and a security strategy. Svitlana Romanko shared this at the 4th Ukraine Resilience Business Forum in Luxembourg, discussing Ukraine’s recovery and #EU integration.

Since 2024, #Ukraine has added 3+ GW of renewable #energy⚡ By 2025, companies investing in alternative energy tripled, from 6% to 20.2%. Razom We Stand launches the Renewable Energy Tracker to follow trends in Ukraine’s energy market. Learn more 🔗 razomwestand.com/res-tracker/

A new pro bono legal analysis by the Spanish law firm Rēgula, prepared for B4Ukraine, finds that the EU regulation phasing out Russian gas/oil imports is not an overreach, but a constitutionally defensible exercise of EU power. bit.ly/4b6Y1Ds

Our new graphics show who is still working with Russia and buying #LNG today, including European companies like #SEFE, #TotalEnergies, and #Naturgy. Loopholes must be closed: stronger enforcement, maritime restrictions, and #sanctions on all Arc7 LNG carriers. Check the visuals 👇

The war in #Ukraine and stronger #sanctions on Russia top today’s talks with Chancellor Merz & President Trump. #Germany must stop funding Putin’s war via Russian #LNG & seize “shadow fleet” tankers. Europe needs a full maritime ban to force real peace. Full statement 👇

The Scottish Government is being urged to cancel a £1.2bn gas deal with #TotalEnergies, which holds a 20% stake in Russia’s Yamal #LNG project. The @dailyrecord.co.uk features Svitlana Romanko, founder of Razom We Stand, calling on the Scottish Government to cancel the deal.

At Café Kyiv in Berlin, we discussed how #Ukraine can shift from #energy survival to strategic contribution through clean electricity exports and decentralised renewables. Read our blog for key highlights. razomwestand.com/from-surviva...

Year 5 of the Ukraine invasion. Heroes like Svitlana Romanko of @razomwestand.bsky.social are clear - Putin's war machine won't stop until fossil fuel money pipeline stops. And that won't happen unless we move faster to clean power and renewables. watch/read - news.wickedproblems.uk/p/for-ukrain...

As Russia attacks Ukraine’s #energy infrastructure, investing in resilient, clean energy is critical. Since April 2022, 36 partners have contributed €1,613 to the Ukraine Energy Support Fund. Support must continue.

Germany must stop buying Russian #gas. Every delay costs lives. Yesterday in #Berlin, together with thousands of people at a protest with @vitsche.bsky.social, we reminded #Germany: four years into the full-scale war, any business with Russia fuels its brutal aggression.

Berlin, 24. Februar 2026 Danke!

Four years into Russia’s full-scale invasion, fossil fuel money is still funding the war. Stop Russian fossil fuels. Defund the war machine. @olehsavytskyi.bsky.social

Russia’s war is entering year 5, yet the EU has paid €200B+ for Russian energy since 2022, incl. €38B for #LNG. Our new graphic shows which countries are still buying and funding Russia’s war. The 20th #sanctions package must close loopholes and finally stop Russian LNG.

Merkt euch den Tag: 24. Februar 2026❗️ Vier Jahre sind seit Beginn von russlands Vollinvasion der Ukraine vergangen. Vier Jahre des Widerstands, der Solidarität und des Einsatzes für Freiheit – nicht nur für die Ukraine, sondern für ganz Europa.

Hungary's FM just begged Croatia for Russian oil—despite Hungary having a pipeline for non-RU crude The real emergency isn't energy. It's the discount. MOL buys Russian crude cheap, sells refined products at EU prices. But savings never reach Hungarian drivers—they fund Orbán's patronage network

4 years of Russia’s invasion. Ukrainians risk everything daily. Russia earned €1 trillion from fossil fuels while EU loopholes let flows continue. Our graphic shows who must act. The 20th EU #sanctions must close loopholes, ban maritime services, and sanction Yamal #LNG.

In an interview with @aljazeera.com, Svitlana Romanko explains: Russian oil and gas money is still funding Russia’s war in #Ukraine, helped by shadow fleets and companies like #Seapeak. Energy security means ending fossil fuel dependence.

Razom We Stand launches a new factsheet on Yamal LNG. Since 24 Feb 2022, Russian Arctic gas has continued to flow to EU ports, funding the Kremlin’s war chest. As the EU prepares its 20th #sanctions package, leaders must close transit and transhipment loopholes with a strong maritime services ban.

At the Munich Security Conference, Razom We Stand warns: Stop funding Putin’s war. Every Russian oil or #LNG cargo funds missiles. EU #sanctions must include a full ban on maritime services. @munsecconf.bsky.social #MSC2026

Putin’s attacks on Ukraine’s #energy system risk a global nuclear disaster. Our adviser @olehsavytskyi.bsky.social joined Howie Hawkins to discuss Ukraine’s #energy crisis and why clean energy is an investment in peace.

As Ukrainians freeze without power due to Russian attacks, UK schools are buying #gas from #TotalEnergies, a company with ties to Russian fossil fuels. This is an absolute shock. British public bodies must cancel these contracts with Total, and stop funding Russia’s war.

Hungary’s challenge to EU Russian gas ban is politically motivated myth. Our Dr. Romanko explains why real European solidarity with Ukraine 🇺🇦 means phasing out Kremlin gas now. 🔗 euromaidanpress.com/2026/02/03/h...

🛑 The EU must adopt a full Maritime Services ban to stop cash flowing to Russia's war machine. Bloomberg reports: an EU ban on insurance & transport is being pushed by Latvia, Lithuania, Netherlands, Finland, Sweden. Let’s demand this in the EU 20th #Sanctions package on Feb 24! #RazomWeStand

@b4ukraine.org & Razom We Stand, with 30+ orgs & UK MPs, call on the UK to cancel #TotalEnergies contracts, and stop working with those helping Russian #LNG exports. Renewal starts Feb 2026. Continuing deals weaken the UK’s moral authority & helps fund war.
