EU trade balance with Russia and EU reliance on imported energy
RECTANGULAR_BALLSACK:
EU member states trade balance with Russia, 2012 - A negative figure shows more imports than exports. Russia is the third trading partner of the EU, and the EU is the first trading partner of Russia. EU exports to Russia are dominated by machinery and transport equipment, chemicals, medecines and agricultural products. EU imports from Russia are dominated by raw materials, in particular, oil and gas. Source: Eurostat 1 & 2
Energy dependence % - all energy products, 2012 - Shows the extent to which an economy relies upon imports in order to meet its energy needs. The indicator is calculated as net imports divided by the sum of gross inland energy consumption plus bunkers. More than half of the EU-27’s energy comes from countries outside the EU – and this proportion has been generally rising over the last decade. Much of this energy comes from Russia, whose disputes with transit countries have threatened to disrupt supplies in recent years – for example, between 6 and 20 January 2009, gas flows from Russia via Ukraine were interrupted.
