## EU Energy Shift
EU energy commissioner Dan Jørgensen says the EU has opened doors to more diverse reliable gas suppliers.
## US Gas Dominance
US provided 57 percent of EU's liquefied natural gas last year and is on course to supply two-thirds this year.
## Security Risk
US officials threaten EU could lose access to American LNG if it tries to reopen the Turnberry trade deal.
## Key takeaway

EU's reliance on US gas threatens EU and Ukrainian security similarly to its past reliance on Russian gas.
