Which doesn't have much to do with imports from Russia, as nlg (which was kept at relatively low prices) is only a small fraction of electricity production, as nlg powerplants are used for dealing with fluctuations in the system. Nlg is used in heating and in industry and it's cuts in industry use that will mess up European economy the most.
Then why are you even members?
this is a map of europe before world war one.
You will notice all of those countries that do not exist during this time period thats because at this point in time they are directly occupied by russia and during this period russia was trying to destroy thier culture through russification.
This is a map of europe during the cold war. The countries in red? Their the relatively lucky ones they are puppet states that are occupied by russia. Things during this time were pretty fucking horrible I mean this is a system that murdered over a hundred million people so yeah....thats fun and if your in the soviet union it was worse. Because your under direct control.
this is europe today.
The regions your complaining about? They got to enjoy being brutalized by russians for centuries in a few cases the russians commited actual genocide against them. Then they got to enjoy having the communists make their life even more hellish because the Russians decided to create a new man.
For countries like Poland this is a transactual deal. The Germans fuck them and their economy with over regulation of god damned everything. (The germans purposefully make sure that regulations fuck less advanced economies.) But in return for relative poverity and german enrichment they get protection from Russia.
Everything they tolerate is for the one singular goal of never being under the Russian boot heel ever again.
In their mind its like.
If were not getting the one thing we ask for then fuck you, which considering how western europe has abused this region of europe in favor of stupid woke shit is a reasonable atitude to have.
