Thanks, but unfortunately I still don't understand the difference of EU customer going to Gazprom bank, exchanging their dollars/euros to rubles first, and then buying gas vs. EU customer paying to Gazprom bank with dollars/euros first, and then Gazprom bank just auto-converting to rubles to buy the same gas with. The only thing I see here is that Gazprom bank could charge an extra 1-4% exchange fee or something, if the EU customer initiated the currency exchange. I am asking this, because EU seems to be making a HUGE deal out of who actually does the currency exchange.
I googled this very fresh article (https://archive.ph/kq7eP) from S&P and it also didn't help much....except it seems like even though some EU officials "in charge" know what the Russian conditions stipulate (since the Russians sent the new payment requirements), they are not disclosing it clearly and transparently to public, for some reason.
