WASHINGTON (Sputnik) – The US Department of State is not aware of any new liquefied natural gas (LNG) shipments from Russia, the spokesperson for the Bureau of Energy Resources at the State Department, Vincent Campos, told Sputnik on Tuesday.

"Regarding the LNG, I read Maria's statement on this topic. I seemed to me that she was speaking in the past regarding LNG shipments that have already arrived in the US such as the gas from Yamal that was sent to Boston," Campos said, adding that he had not seen "anything regarding any new shipments."
