This is an answer why Ukrainians are grateful for the EU help but not from the bottom of our hearts. Like, we are not the richest country in the world but we aren’t idiots #ukrainianview www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f... - ThreadSky

I understand. Even with sanctions, caps, and alternative energy, the consumption change is negligible.

Not exactly.

The import change was significant. Gazprom export to EU fall by 59% from 2022 to 2023 and closed the 2024 in loss for the second time in a row ever.
Oil export to EU fell about 85% from 2021 to 2024.

But those are very lucrative businesses, that's why they still make billions

The EU need to cut off all the supply from ruzzia, but countries like Slovakia and Hungary still want to import fossil fuel from ruzzia

Our politicians are fucking idiots on those matters.

Cutting all economic revenues of ruzzia is one of the way to speed up the war end. The other is to supply all the weapons needed to kick their asses

Before this is over a lot of people are going wish they had never bought Russian energy products or food stuffs!

Take ALL the frozen Russian money from the energy payments are give ALL THE INTEREST accrued and give EVERY SINGLE PENNY to Ukraine so they can build everything the Russians have destroyed. Don't let any American companies help with the rebuild. NEVER give up any Ukrainian territory to anyone.

Well stated and good clap back to the arrogance! It is a moral imperative that the US and EU respond to the naked aggression started by Putin and the RF. Ukraine should not be extorted, given conditions or constantly asked for gratitude.
It should be given, in simple terms, no questions asked! 🇺🇦❤️✌️🪶😢

Europe that now is another pawn like Ukraine in the overthrow of democracy at the behest of Trump.

Ukraine is fighting this war, literally fighting for its life, with one hand tied behind its back. Україна веде цю війну, буквально бореться за своє життя, з однією рукою за спиною -- під лежачий камінь вода не тече

One of the major takeaways from yesterday’s German election is that they are going to switch back to nuclear power. This is a good thing in many many ways.

That certainly needs to change!
