It's not a surprise. There are certain players in the gas market. Don't forget that governments work for corporations, not for people. Corporations want the cheapest of the cheapest for their profits, and politicians want more cuts. Whoever offers the cheapest good (gas in this case) will eventually get sold. Even though they tell people that the EU is putting sanctions on Russia, their puppet (Greece) carries Russian gas to the EU. This is how the world works.
