Russia sells $67b fossil fuel to Germany, others as war rages in Ukraine
Germany bought the biggest volume of Russian energy during the first two months of the Ukraine war.
The Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air calculated that Russia has earned 63 billion euros ($66.5bn) from fossil fuel exports since February 24, the date Russia began its invasion of Ukraine.
Using data on ship movements, real-time tracking of gas flows through pipelines and estimates based on historical monthly trade, the researchers said Germany alone paid Russia about 9.1 billion euros for fossil fuel deliveries in the first two months of the war.
The German government said it could not comment on estimates and declined to provide any figures of its own, saying these would need to come from companies that procure the coal, oil and gas, the Associated Press has reported.
