Green Energy ♻ Is very green because it cost a lot of Green 💸
EU economy is torn to shreds 🤣
The sanctions fever of the West threatens the whole world;
The waning US dominance in the world has become a catalyst for sanctions policies;
Western countries try to maintain a world order that benefits only them, constantly changing the rules and breaking them themselves;
The quality of life of the people of Europe is thrown into the furnace of sanctions and sacrificed in order to keep the US dictatorship in world affairs;
In recent years there has been a tectonic change in the system of international relations and the role of Asia-Pacific countries has increased significantly;
It is possible that the niche of the European economy suffering from world sanctions will be occupied by the Americans;
Businesses in Europe are becoming less competitive and they are closing;
Confidence in the dollar, euro and sterling has been lost, even US allies are reducing their dollar reserves;
Inflation in Russia is on a downward trend and is expected to be around 12% by the end of the year
One of the reasons for business closures in Europe is the severing of business ties with Russia;
The President expects inflation in Russia to be 5-6% in the first and second quarters of 2023, possibly even 4%;
Buying up of food by Western countries leads to higher prices, which could be tragic for the poorest countries;
Europeans continue to act as colonizers, betraying the poorest countries;
Almost all grain exported from Ukraine went to the EU countries, and not to the poorest countries, to which only two ships went
The energy crunch can only be solved by stopping the Russia-Ukraine war but NATO wants the war to go on and on.
Why can't the west use the same power to sit down with russia for cease fire and peace negotiation.The only people affected more by this madness is middle class and the poor.
Question for Europeans:
How much is your most recent energy bill and what country do you live in?
From a curious American.
EU governments now putting sanctions on their own citizens.
Stop pouring weapons and EU taxpayers money in to the terrible blackhole, the war in Ukraine – those just prolong the suffering and destruction in Ukraine as well as for us the economical and social disaster in the EU!
Start peace negotioations with Russia how to solve all the economical and geopolitital conflicts.
when ever there is a crisis, someone makes a lot of money. Mostly its people who has connections to the government.
rofl, if germany and the rest of europe did it, it's a sanction, and when russia did it, it's a blackmail.
According to Bloomberg, German Gas to Last Less Than 3 Months If Russia Cuts Supply. So what is Scholz doing to ensure continuous gas flows or mitigate the effects of gas shortages in the coming months?
Most countries in Europe love to play hero and punish their own citizens lol
Where is the news on how DW company lost in a court case?? Is this a news channel or what?
We should have taken action years ago instead of building up such tight relation with The United States of Mordor.
For YEARS many people have tried AND succeeded to put hydrogen to a constructive use. The industry didn't follow up on that, which is a big shame. Mainly because companies like NAM and SHELL are stating over and over again that it's too expensive and we're not ready yet to make this profitable (which they work on very hard to eventually do so, to make hydrogen a profitable or rather a lucrative business)
It's frustrating to know that they (these corporations) spent millions on advertising and such while these could also have spent on creating hydrogen plants.
easy to save energy now, not so easy when the weather becomes uncomfortable
They know first gentials then barbarians frist educated then uneducated, gentials don't want to listen, gentials means all races republic's. Republic's want money no obeying causes ask Mexico Elsalvador North area of south American
Not Purubian or arginine
Late start something not nothing we die fighting we die free men and women. Free
Reduce consumption… And clean nuclear production. The German government is a hypocrite
Sharpen your pitchforks
Remove all those leftists green political greta Thunberg lovers and reopen gas and oil production in US and expand it in Norway also you maybe ints., to know that Ukraine has the 3rd biggest gas reserve of UNTAPED fracking gas (Shale Gas reserves in Europe ) and there is enough GAS in Ukraine to supply all of European energy needs for gas for the next 50 years !!! SO WE DONT NEED RUSSIA !!
(it was found by geologist only in 2013 ) and in 2014 your beloved Putin invaded Ukraine when he understood a European friendly gov. will be taking over and was making deals to deliver gas ti Europe !! BET YOU DID NOT KNOW THAT DID YOU !!
Russian only invaded after it was proved by geologist that Ukraine in fact has the 3rd largest gas fracking reserves this was something they only found out about in 2013 ..(Russia and Putin was afraid if a EU / US friendly government came to power in Kiev the EU and USA will move in start gas production and the EU will start buying its gas from Ukraine and not Russia )
Ukraine has Europe's 3rd largest shale gas reserves at 42 trillion cubic …Russia’s silent shale gas victory in Ukraine The vast shale gas reserves in the separatist-held Ukrainian regions of Donetsk and Luhansk regions are an important element not to be overlooked when analyzing the Ukraine crisis.
ok let's collect putin tax, problems solved🤣
So French citizens will only cut energy usage as long as the government give them hand-outs? With citizens like that, who needs enemies.
So, the people through taxes will fund their compensations. That's nonsense, when energy companies profits are soaring. Ask yourself, if natural gas market price got up 2x, then why European gas used to generate electricity is up 6x, like they say?
In the netherlands gas en electric prices each month one household 840€ …..wtf.
Diesel 2 € ….. Its insane.
You don't need double-talk. You need Bob Lablaw
How funny when he called it blackmail now that we are all suffering from all the suctions imposed to Russia.
Do you expect that if you throw a stone to someone, that someone will throw back a bread? Nahhh they will build empire out of your stones! Thanks for all your genius mind and now we are all suffering
BREAKING NEWS: Germany intends to strike a new deal with Russia to build Nordstream 3.
The EU politicians are making decisions with their eyes wide open. This is self-inflicted pain. 😂😂😂
European's has only one choice. Abondone zelenski and talk to putin or else you guys can suffer
wear your underwear to keep warm. RUSSIA has never blackmailed it is the USA NATO UK blackmailing RUSSIA by the expansion of NATO.
Ukrainian grain, for which European leaders were so busy, was sent not to the poorest and developing countries, but to European and the United States. In fact, Europe stole Ukrainian grain from the poorest countries without giving them a single grain. This is a disgrace on the heads of the European Union. That's why they whipped up hysterics for the export of grain! But it's a disgrace to the whole world!!! Stealing grain from poor countries is criminal theft! The European Union has stolen grain even from those Asian countries that were forced to vote against Russia! In fact, by deceiving them with their promises and promises!
I heard some people were planning a winter holiday south or in warmer climates etz, that means if they got gas heating they can turn it down to a minimum just to avoid damage to the property and then spend time where they don't have to worry about gas. If a lot of people with gas heated homes would do this then it could save a lot of gas and ease issues, while they might have a good time on their vacation. Even just one month of it would save a lot of gas and costs. Maybe tap the waterpipes aswell and prepare you home to make sure it doesn't freeze in case it gets colder than it should. If 10-20% extra of those with gas heating would leave and turn down their heat a little extra while they're abroad, it would probably make a big difference. This winter is a great opportunity to go on a vacation.
EU will do everything in its power (no pun intended) to tackle the energy crisis! Except produce their own power… They have green power but that does not work when cloudy or when there is no wind and when clear and windy not enough power anyway. It is like no-win no-win.
Many of you try to look hart and explain how you can save. Try to save when company in which you are working close and you go with no work and income in the middle of the winter.
👅They are a laughing stock of the entire world, losing a war against 20 HIMARS, and all the European Union weapons. 🧠Zelensky has ordered the Ukrainian army commanders to blow up nuclear plants, to recover the territory Zelensky lost to Russia. Biden has spent roughly three-quarters of the $40 billion approved by the USA Congress in May, officials told the Associated Press, and Biden wants to spend $13.7 billion more. Biden and the European Union continues announcing multi-billion dollar packages to fund weapons and ammo, surface-to-air missile systems, counter-drone technology, and drones.🫂 “Together we will win!” Zelensky wrote on social media, thanking Biden and Europe for financing the war. “Blame rising gasoline prices, rising electricity prices, rising heating gas prices on Putin. Not the economic sanctions European privileged leaders imposed on Russia”
How did all these US television personalities get control of DW?
EU must saving energy 95% in Autumn for use in Winter. Cap energy prices, streamlining the entire distribution chain of goods, social assistance for 40% lower middle class to combat high inflation and avoid a recession.
Europe is also using sanctions as a weapon to destroy Russia Russia has to write to do the same right back so both of them have to figure out how to go around the sanchez and I call the guys it's all the gas stop it's a sanction also is a tick tick for tack both used use the section To destroy each otherEurope is also using sanctions as a weapon to destroy Russia Russia has to write to do the same right back so both of them have to figure out how to go around the sanchez and I call the guys it's all the gas stop it's a sanction also is a tick tick for tack both used use the section To destroy each other What a pretty that the people all the ones who are going to supper
