Russia’s gas exports to Europe, once its primary export market, have slumped because of the political fallout from the conflict in Ukraine, while Gazprom, which has a monopoly on piping gas abroad, has been the most tangible victim of western sanctions.

Ha Putin, you bet the sanctions work! Remember this is how bad it was in 2023, this year will probably be way worse after Ukraine has also begun to take out depots and refineries. Rumors are that Russia is beginning to lack oil to service both their population and the war!
The oil industry is by far the biggest earner for Russia, so Gazprom posting such a bad result can only mean the Russian economy is feeling some real hurt from the sanctions.
