the EU itself is being threatened

LOL. Pull the other one, it's got bells on.

 

A smidgen of proof that Putin is threatening to drive at the head of a conquering army into ANY NATO country would be appropriate, and not from any MSM media either thanks.

 

BTW Putin doesn't have to invade, he can just turn the gas off for every pipeline to Europe and let them freeze, or go bankrupt paying for US gas.

Just maybe you should look into how Gazprom is doing!

Putin threatened to turn off the gas and the EU responded by buying it else where.

The Ukraine just shut down the last line,end of contract.

Europe is well prepared for this and are dealing with it and no one is freezing.

The only reports I’ve read about Putin threatening to turn off the gas comes from western msm. He even offered to supply gas using the one still operational NS pipeline.

 

Regardless of whether Europe is prepared or not, Europeans are having to pay significantly more now for LNG from Qatar and the US. That’s just foolish. Same like ordering something from Walmart that was made in China which you could buy on Lazada at a fraction of Walmart’s price. No wonder all these “leaders” are falling, one by one lol.

I wish Putin would turn off the gas.  This would doom the Russian economy.

Why would Putin want to turn off the gas? That’s just stupid and Putin is anything but that. The west on the other hand is trying to stop Putin from selling Russian gas, hoping that by doing that, the Russian economy will be doomed. 3 years and tens of thousands of sanctions later, they are still hoping. Some of their economies are shrinking, the others are stagnant and Russia’s economy is growing faster than pretty much every western economy. No prizes for guessing who are the stupid ones.

Other than raw, unprocessed natural resources, what value added products does Russia export to the world? The reality is that the Russian economy is in free fall and their banks and teetering on the edge. 

 

Only yesterday the Duma was battling with the central bank to prevent the latter from confiscating bank balances above $13,300, but apparently the Duma lost. Already Russians are limited in the withdrawals they can make. Now if they have over 1.4 million roubles in their account it's now frozen and out of their reach. Russia is on its knees and sinking - the sooner the better.
