I'm not questioning the effort it took to actually implement the zeroing off Russia's gas. It just wasn't Germany's decision. See https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/exclusive-germany-prepares-crisis-plan-abrupt-end-russian-gas-sources-2022-05-09/ and https://www.ft.com/content/6c6352c3-cb60-48e5-aa5e-7cf02328f544
You could argue that connecting those two causally is just journalistic speculation.
Well, it would add up if Germany didn't block sanctions against buying Russian LNG in EU https://www.politico.eu/article/germany-blocks-first-ever-sanctions-russian-gas/
So answer to your actual question about NL & BE is: because it's legal and not an issue according to DE&HU.
