Claim 3: “the first shipment [of a Russian liquefied natural gas project] went to the US market”
DISPUTED
The evidence directly contradicts the claim that the first shipment of the Russian LNG project (Arctic LNG 2) went to the US. One source explicitly states the first shipment arrived at an 'Indian terminal', and another reports a vessel failed to find a buyer due to 'US restrictions', indicating it did not go to the US market.
