This is the kind of positive fallout I have been expecting from Russia’s European war.
Exactly. If Russia won't supply the EU the US can step up to the plate and become their primary supplier of fossil fuels instead. The revenue could then help us put a dent in our $30 trillion deficit. Everybody except Russia wins, yet there are still many Freepers stuck in "But sanctions bad" mode.
What are the odds of that ? zero....in the near term
Surely this will make many European voters realize that a nation’s energy needs are not a game but a matter of life and death and economic survival, and frankly, living as modern people.
The politics of dependable energy sources such as nukes and coal and nat gas is bound to get easier for the politicians promoting them and self-sufficiency.
None of this bodes well for Russia.
