Disgraceful that the rest of the world sits and watches, waiting to see the result. If Ukraine can bleed Russia enough to weaken them significantly. All at Ukraine's expense. Every day it continues is horrible, and I'm nervous of whatever escalation this might be. It's also scary that this escalation may still not be enough for anyone else to act.

And there's more than that but you can find it yourself.

But, they still fund the Russian war machine for years by buying Russian Oil and Gas. Make it make sense - why fund Russia's ability to wage war if you're opposed to it?

Also, it's not just Europe - South Korea sold 176k tonnes of diesel and jet fuel to Russia in July and August. So, I guess both Koreas are supporting Russia ability to wage war in one way or another.

EU countries have reduced their need for Russian gas massively.

Since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, the European gas market has undergone a profound transformation. The share of Russian natural gas in EU demand fell from almost 40% in 2021 to around 10% in 2025. At the same time, LNG’s share of demand grew from less than 20% to almost 45%, increasing the bloc’s exposure to global gas markets.

The decline has been driven primarily by the steep drop in Russian pipeline gas imports, which fell by almost 90%, or 120 bcm, between 2021 and 2025. This adjustment has been uneven across the EU: Northwest Europe and Italy have effectively eliminated imports of Russian pipeline gas, whereas several markets in Central and Eastern Europe continue to rely on Russian supplies. By contrast, imports of Russian LNG increased by over 40%, or 6 bcm, over the same period, with most of the growth concentrated in Northwestern and Southwestern Europe.

There you go, I made it make sense.

Nope still funding their war machine. Decrease does not equal cessation

You're very naïve if you think it can be done any quicker, or do you expect Europeans to go without power until alternatives are set up?

It's ok, I don't care about your answer - you've proven it will be worthless.
