The European Union is unhappy with the sanctions that Washington has imposed against Gazprombank.

There are reports that the EU is trying to put pressure on the US to ease restrictions.

This was reported by Bloomberg , which cites its own sources.

Let us recall that Washington previously imposed sanctions against Gazprombank. The difficulty is that this organization, according to Vladimir Putin's decree, is the only one that can accept payment for gas supplies.

As the agency has learned, the European and American sides are discussing the scale of such a step. At the same time, many European companies are already afraid of serious problems that suppliers will face, left without the ability to pay for energy resources.
