Could you give some evidence for this claim? Here is some counterevidence: [1] says that the top buyers of Russian energy include:

• Hungary: 416 million euros ($488m)

• Slovakia: 275 million euros ($323m)

• France: 157 million euros ($184m)

• Netherlands: 65 million euros ($76m)

• Belgium: 64 million euros ($75m)

[2] suggests that China and India are the main buyers. I don't how reliable those sources are. There is also the problem of how to classify 'laundered' oil that was bought and resold by, e.g. India.

Looks like I have old data. Germany stopped buying officially oil from Russia. We will see now pressure on other countries to follow.
