Germany Accuses Putin Of 'Blackmail' And Refuses To Back Down After Russian President Threatened To Turn Off Europe's Gas Supplies In HOURS If Countries Refuse To Pay In Roubles

I wonder whose eyes are being opened by this crisis.

Everyone worldwide must go back to nuclear as soon as possible.

I guess those 5 pipelines that my Canadian Federal government cancelled, to screw over Alberta, is looking pretty good right now.

Too bad it would take 5 years to get one built from this very moment if one was approved.

The whole world seemed to think it could wage economic warfare against Russia, and Russia simply wouldn’t retaliate.

Trump told them this would happen.

Does the best time line even make that possible?

Germany's embrace of 'green energy' (wind farms, solar), and also shutting down their nuke plants will show the world the audacity of the green energy scam, but at the expense of the German people who will suffer.

Just lucky their cold weather is over.

The worldwide NWO poweratti WANTS exactly that. They are tired of shilling vaccination scares, climate change, and all the other small-group victim pandering.

Cut to the chase. Make it life or death. Freeze or suffocate in intense heat and not be able to use any device or mechanism to make it better.

This way, you will accept the pittance of energy, freedom or subsistence they deign to allow you. In return, you only need to comply.

They made the decision to move away from nuclear power and tied themselves to Russian energy instead. Trump’s point was, if you are going to be dependent on Russia, and you’re going to fund them, (and you’re going to let your military turn to rust), what is the point of NATO?

So now Russia is on the move and Europe is in a box of their own making.

The Germans could probably buy rubles from the Chinese, who would be happy to get Euros in exchange for them.

BASF needs the petrochemicals to synthesize chemical feedstocks used in making a lot of products you use every day. You can use nuclear to split water to make hydrogen, then use the water gas shift reaction to produce other chemicals. That is very expensive.

They have until tomorrow to figure this out, deadline is April Fool’s Day.

Trump had the exact same point about steel. He was just as right.

Germany has cut it’s nose off to spite it’s face. Following Joe Biden will do that to you.

Time and leverage are on Putin’s side. The war in Ukraine must be ended ASAP. Biden got us into a new Cold War.

“German Chemical Giant Warns Of “Total Collapse” If Russian Gas Supply Cut”

Talk about hyperbola. Greta was VERY CLEAR. Germans will now have to wear an extra sweater in the winter and not drive on Sundays if the Russians cut off the 40% of the energy they supply to Germany. It’s a SMALL price to pay, for sticking it to Putin.

...no need to panic.

Positive for the US. During the Trump years, German companies were opening plants in the midwest due to the cheap energy costs. This could start that flow again in a big way.
