Is this really a war between Europe and Russia when Europe is still importing more gas from Russia than they are from the US? I think the world and America is being played by the globalists.

Europe buys less than half the gas from Russia it did before the war, and May is one of the lowest demand months of the year.

If I could pay for stuff in rubles, I would be buying stuff from them too. That’s like paying in money made out of newsprint at the local grammar school.

Were we really a big exporter to Europe anyway?

Just like Syria, this is a European pipeline war. Only American citizens are paying for it
I am assuming Tucker won’t ask zelensky about this, just like he was silent about the vaccines.

FAKE NEWS!!!

I’ve got to call you out on this one as we all know that the Financial Times is controlled by Russian agents, because RUSSIA IS EVERYWHERE!!!!!

But one question? Why would the these Russian agents use the Western Media Dog Whistle: “full scale invasion of Ukraine”, at the beginning of the article? It makes no sense, it doesn’t compute. Could the Zeepers be wrong when they run around screaming like that Joe Boggs app ranting about how Russia is crashing?

My mind is full of contradictions now. Help.

But we have been told by Freeper Zeepers that Ruzzia economy was about to collapse. They are all Ukie Propaganda messengers.

Trump will pump oil to bankrupt Russia at the same time he'll send more weapons to Ukraine.

That'll force Putin to negotiate.

This is EU's response to this embarrassing news story at the time of that story. The US immediately made sure they did something quick about the EU screwing us out of our LNG export price gouging profits our 'friends' perpetuated on us.

How is that sanction war working out?

Europe is run by incredible stupid people.

Globalists destroy everything they touch.

I half agree with you. It is utterly absurd, but typical of European politicians to speak out of both sides of their mouths.

From a different source, countries like Italy get 40% of their energy in the form of LPG from Russia. This is through Austria, which,

“Yet while on paper it may seem as though Italy has reduced its dependency on Russian pipeline gas, it continues to receive high volumes of pipeline gas through Austria, which increased its pipeline gas imports from Russia from 80 per cent to 98 per cent in the past two years.”

Also from the source (https://www.chathamhouse.org/2024/06/eus-continued-dependency-russian-gas-could-jeopardize-its-foreign-policy-goals),

“In some cases, like Austria and France, countries are locked into long-term contracts with Russian energy providers which are difficult to end early – despite attempts being made. In other instances, Russian gas is being laundered through Azerbaijan and Turkey to meet continued high European demands.”

In other words, these countries talk a big game about Russia, but are still under their thumb for energy.

There’s still a bunch of fools who think NATO is a good idea.

Thank you, President Biden, for your war on US oil and gas production and exports. (sarc.)

The Biden administration is not only allowing Europe to buy Russia fuel it is encouraging it. They want to lower the gas prices here in the US. This will continue until the election.
