There are I believe pipelines that go directly from Russia to Europe and I believe some that go through Ukraine as well. I am not the expert.
The issue is that Europe still needs it's energy from some source and a significant source is Russia and that's an issue. Even the new pipeline approval that was part of the sanctions will probably need to be lifted at some point in the future.
