Russia is preparing to deliver a decisive energy blow to all Europeans this winter. Therefore, all countries should unite and fight back. This was stated by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky in an evening video message.
In particular, Zelensky noted why Russia stopped pumping gas through the Nord Stream.
" Wants to weaken and intimidate the whole of Europe, every state. Where Russia can't do it with force, with conventional weapons, does it with energy weapons. It is trying to strike with poverty and political chaos where it cannot yet strike with missiles, and in order to defend itself against this, we in Europe need even more unity, even more coordination, help each other. This winter, Russia is preparing for a decisive energy blow to all Europeans. And the key answer to this should be two things:
the first is our unity in defense against a terrorist state, the second is the strengthening of our own pressure on Russia, this is the strengthening of all levels of sanctions, and the restriction of Russia's oil and gas revenues. The more blows we all strike together, the fewer blows these terrorists will be able to strike,"
As reported, G7 finance ministers agreed to set a price limit for Russian oil.. The EU also plans to cap the price of Russian gas transported through pipelines to rebuff Kremlin chief Vladimir Putin's attempts to manipulate the European energy market..
