"After Ukraine wins " Really?
She is delusional, about both issues.

Europe must apologise to Russia for the criminal support they gave to the Nazi regime of Ukraine.

[glynnec]

So the EU "green" plan to save the environment relies on driving coal-power "electric" cars ?? How ironic.

[TsarOfRuss]

"ECO-ACTION" from Kiev??? same Kiev that has been bombing Donbass for the past 8yrs has eco ambitions ????

if russian gas is so much necessary to europe, what is the need to become member of nato.

[melaninbotswana]

Am so confused how can you sanction a country that provides you with gas and expect it to continue supplying you with gas

[ericramirez]

Cannot imagine the EU composed of mighty nations bracing themselves to withstand pressures from a single individual.

[gunjaneighteen]

Thankyou for taking India's stand.

[chinhuattan]

When the cold bites, NATO will sing a different tune.

[gb-channel]

Why Germany is reluctant in Ukraine?? Europe will have unrest between themselves, even make wars with each other. Germany benefits from that.
Countries like Sweden, France are mixed with iron and clay. They have to much differences between people.

[darrenlewis]

Russia didnt invade Crimea.
The Crimeans voted in a referendum to become part of Russia

[IK-sobm]

Unrest? Revolution is what Europe needs.

Australia supplies cheap gas to China; this is used to produce solar panels amongst other things. Europe is doing cold-Turkey over depence on Russian gas and oil and by it reducing/blocking access to its own energy the world-wide price of gas/oil is soaring. This makes Russia richer and the West is thus forced to pay the escalating prices that are demanded by world shortages. Perhaps Europe's winter supplies could be sought from Australia and the Southern Hemisphere. Australia could, itself, use its gas to produce renewable energy products at home rather than sending abroad. Yes, infrastructure needed; however, it seems that solar panels last 7-10 years and around 90 % of the world supply is at present made in China. The West has been setting itself up for energy dendence on Russia and China for years. We won't need to worry about Global Warming if would-be Tsar Vlad-the-Mad Putin brings on a Nuclear Winter!

Germany, at present, has nuclear and coal-fired power stations it can keep in use, instead of shutting them down as planned, and some recently closed that can be brought back into service. It has the industrial might to start its own solar/wind renewable energy resources and can get European funding for that. It is Green political dogma that is driving the West's dependancy on China and Russia. We have been warned. We should get our act together!

Ps, if Nstream1 develops catastrophic "maintenance " that requires added time, do you think the EU will authorise Nordstream 2? Over to you Mr Putin. Time to play 4d Chess with these EU nincompoops. It would be the quickest way to not only get the project approved? but add in conditions and at the same time, deliver a high five with a wursterhammar to their beetroot faces😎👌

[lucifer]

It is quite evident that EU leaders are not so competent since they had not evaluated the factor that they had this such type of dependency on Russia thus ending up facing such situation. Instead of blaming responsible people of their country (leadership), blaming Putin and Russia which is triggering more critical situation 😂

[joealcamo]

Gee, I sure would not want to freeze.

"It's not easy being green, " Kermit the frog

[juanitoatiwag]

Your ancestors have lived without Russian gas before and you have 3 months to prepare before winter, can you not do it?

Trump warned Germany in 2018 and noboady listened. They just mocked Trump.
