Well it's not all of Europe. But given this is now well known, if the rest of Europe continue to buy the LNG from these countries you need to count them as complicit. They need to be blacklisted by the EU and other states that are currently sanctioning Russia.

Belgium and France are particularly a bad show here in my opinion considering they're where EU parliamentary business takes place.

EU had gas pipelines before. Focussing on LNG is suspicious. LNG was tiny in comparison with what was delivered way more cheaply through those pipelines.
