—”Then why did Japan DEMAND to be allowed to pay more than the price cap for their Russian oil?”

Japan persuaded the US to make the exception, claiming that it was necessary to ensure access to Russian energy. The concession demonstrates Japan’s reliance on Russia for fossil fuels

80 % of Japan’s oil comes from the USA.

You may have noticed that Japan has some ongoing problems with its nuclear power generation.

Yep, they listened to your friends and idiotically decided to shutdown their nukes. But they came to their senses...so they’re going the right direction now.

So how about Germany???? Now RATIONING electricity, just after listening to your friends and shutting down their nukes.
