I am really impressed with the Jujitsu move from Russia in which he has been able to get his enemies to hurt themselves far more than he had intended.
Yes, Russia wants the natural gas revenue, but to still have markets and to have those middlemen now make a profit off the same fuel being sold back to the EU, is pretty amazing.
And notice that these countries have no other practical way to counter their energy move against Russia, or much in the way of weapons of consequence (or they are giving them and the Ukrainian Mafia is reselling them outside of the country).
What Putin did was very wrong, but there were no real threats from the EU when Russia took over Crimea. In fact, Trump told them his whole time in office that Russian natural gas dependency was a terrible idea, long after Crimea was taken. Of course, the EU laughed at Trump.
The whole lot of all the involved parties needs to go.

I’m additionally impressed that Putin has organized the BRICS+ & SOC as a counter weight against US/AngloSphere?NATO in global finance, business in general and arms sales.
Careful what you wish for department: Putin has so far been measured and judicious. His successors might not be. They also might not be free of WEFfer taint.
Some days I wonder if Orwell’s EastAsia and Oceania were so named due the insider knowledge he had. This has all been in planning and slow execution for perhaps over 100 years.
