Stop Bloody Energy
Stop Bloody Energy project is a global initiative of Ukrainian energy companies aimed at refusing to buy Russian energy resources and cooperating with Russia in the energy sector due to its war against Ukraine.[1] The project was launched by Rinat Akhmetov's private company DTEK and the state-owned companies Naftogaz and Ukrenergo.[2]
Reception in Ukraine
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky supported the project, calling on Western companies to impose an embargo on Russian oil and gas.[3]
"Buying Russian oil and gas, you are financing the killings of Ukrainians. Act more decisively. It is enough to feed the Russian military machine", President Zelensky said in an official telegram.
Mariupol Mayor Vadym Boychenko supported the project and called on EU countries to strengthen sanctions against Russia, including a full embargo on Russian oil and gas to stop the genocide of Ukrainians.[4]
Reception in the world
The Special Envoy of the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom Catherine Meyer supported the initiative of Ukrainian companies on the inadmissibility of cooperation with Russia in the energy sector.[5]
