EU paid €7.9bn for Russian Arctic LNG amid record imports
EuroNews ^ | 9 Oct 26 | Euronews

Posted on 10/10/2026 8:31:47 AM PDT by delta7

Continued Russian LNG imports undermine the credibility of the EU’s promise to sever its energy ties with Moscow, particularly as Russia continues its war against Ukraine. Europe paid around €7.88 billion for liquefied natural gas (LNG) from Russia’s Arctic energy project in the first nine months of 2026 despite Brussels’ efforts to phase out gas from Moscow....

Pay Russia or freeze in the dark?

Tough choice.

Stupid choices made decades ago to take their nations non-nuclear and choices made more recently to go Net Zero have made Europe more vulnerable to energy shortages.

France had made the choice back in the Sixties to build out nuclear plants because they were coal and gas poor.

This made them fairly energy independent. Germany was on their way to a similar independence when they elected a Green Socialist government that decided that Nuclear was dangerous.

Bad move on Germany’s part and France went Net zero. Another bad move.

The WEF is taking Europe down the road to poverty and revolution.

HA HA

Remember, the Euro-marxist globalists always intended the Atlanticist ghouls in DC to fight Russia.

ghouls like Blinken, Kagan and Biden were ready to oblige.

“The WEF is taking Europe down the road to poverty and revolution.”

So true. And we should never forget, we were being taken down the same road until we were given the Stable Genius President Donald J. Trump.

I believed that up until his second term.

He promised to end the Ukraine War and to end the US involvement in foreign wars.

Then he escalated the Ukrainian War and followed Israel into the war with Iran.

Sorry, Trump is not who he was. Now he is a Neo-Con on steroids

No, Trump did not escalate the Ukraine war.

Ukraine did, at the behest of the cabal.

And Trump did not follow Israel. He led Israel. Everything he did in Iran was perfect. The other side is the one causing it to look worse than it is.

What is it in your mind that makes you believe things that aren’t true? Did you think this war against the globalists would be easy?

Why did you think the war against the globalists would be easy? They’ve controlled the world for generations. Their grip on Iran and the oil trade was their bread and butter. Of course they’re going to fight back.

The world has been deceived for so long. So many dark secrets. What you need to do is learn how to look beneath the veil.

Trump sealed the border. So give it a rest.

Trump only gets about 1.07% of the credit he deserves.

He sealed the border, captured thousands of top level, deepstate-serving gang members, killed the climate change theft of American taxpayers, established the cabal-killing tariffs, stopped USAID from their theft of American taxpayers which drained the deep state coffers, captured Maduro, killed/captured narco traffickers in untold numbers, killed/captured child traffickers in untold numbers, cancelled Lake Ontario and renamed it Lake America, brought in tens of trillions of dollars for the benefit of Americans, began to restructure banking and finance to favor the American people, stopped Iran from getting nuclear weapons, got mass deportation well under way, stopped 8 wars around the world, boarded Air Force One with Mike Tyson, decentralized the world oil trade, took control of Greenland from the cabal, took control of the information war from the cabal with Superior Intelligence, put the enemy media in their place, and brought in the American Golden Age.

Could Ukraine have escalated or continued the war without US military assistance?

Would they have escalated the war without assurances from the US that aid would continue?
