The main purpose of this article is to analyse the European situation in the field of natural gas supply. The article mainly focuses on the energy behaviour of two countries: Russia and the United States of America. Different countries but with similar purposes, as they both aim to limit the power of control of the other in the old continent, using natural gas (Russia) and LNG (USA) as a weapon. This document, in order to arrive at describing the current situation of the "cold gas war", starts from an historical excursus of how and when the two energy powers began to impose themselves on the world level until today, the current "clash" for the search of dominance over Europe. For the writing of this article, since these are very topical topics, several articles from organizations and journals (e.g. The Economist"), specialized in energy and also geopolitics, have been used. The use of papers from the International Energy Agency (IEA), the Oxford Institute for Energy Studies, was also of fundamental importance in achieving the aim of the article.
