Proof that EU is run by CIA agents who corruptly engineer buying the most extortionist energy from US only.
Good for them. The EU has no right to dictate to other countries. The UN is the only international body that [probably?] has authority in this matter
" The main destination of Natural gas, liquefied exports from Qatar are: China ($10B), India ($8.54B), South Korea ($7.38B), United Kingdom ($7.31B), and Belgium ($5.37B" (https://oec.world/en/profile/bilateral-product/natural-gas-liquefied/reporter/qat)
So while it would not ruin Quatar, it certainly would put a dent into their numbers.
That's assuming that they wouldn't be able to redirect shipments to other countries the way Russia did.
Looks as though close to 40% is Europe. Putting a 10% export tax on EU destinations would be a slight revenue increase for them, in addition to increasing the price paid by EU. Even 5% export tax with EU sabotaging competition in their market would be a net profit increase.
