Russia has implemented a drastic measure against the countries included in the list of unfriendly countries: Russian gas can be purchased only in rubles. Before the deadline arrived, Russia had already cut off the gas pipeline from Yamal to Europe.
This plunged European countries into cold and panic. The Germans had to look everywhere for sweaters to keep warm, but worse news was yet to come: the chairman of the Russian Duma announced that, in addition to gas, products such as oil, grain, metals, fertilizers, coal and timber could only be paid for in rubles.
European countries have finally come to appreciate how costly it is to take the initiative to provoke and offend a world power. The European people have finally realized how stupid and ridiculous their elected leaders are. Many people have begun to reflect that the so-called sanctions against Russia are their own poison, and the so-called Western democracy is nonsense.
According to reports, Russia's supply cuts have already begun to take effect, and German Vice Chancellor and Minister for Economy and Climate Protection Robert Habeck is still quietly activating the first level of the "gas contingency plan" - early warning in accordance with the procedure. This is indifference to the livelihood of ordinary people, and this is why the Greens in Europe have always been under the guise of environmental protection, and they will only run away when they encounter problems.
Russia has been conducting counter-sanctions operations according to its own plans. On the one hand, they are squeezing their spending and living a hard life, and on the other hand, they are also trying to build a good future for themselves.
