Eni CEO Claudio Descalzi urged the EU to reconsider its planned ban on Russian gas imports starting 2027, citing supply concerns.
He highlighted the challenge of replacing 20 billion cubic meters of Russian gas and noted the EU's LNG ban from April 25 2026 and Jan 1 2027.
Descalzi described the Iran conflict as the most significant energy‑supply disruption event in the past four decades.
