    Let’s see how many of our spineless “leaders” cave at the first sign of trouble and start begging for Russian oil

      What’s the other option? Telling daddy America to stop their most recent incursion in a far away land for the sake of profit so things can go “back to normal”? Do you think they’ll listen? Thank God someone might be able to provide us with cheapish oil, that’s all we can say now.

            Yes, clearly our only option once things get even a little bit tough is to play into the hand of the genocidal maniacs and give them more money to continue their genocidal war in Europe – it’s not like any oil is going to reach Europe now, so making nice with the maniacs is literally our only option

              the other user asked for possible alternatives, and you are still miserably failing to give any.

              should EU just not buy any oil from anywhere, and preemptively hand over elections to the growing far right parties? is that what you say? if so, please state it clearly next time, so that instead of farming upvotes with “the obvious superior solution”, the actual consequences could be discussed

    And this, along with Epstein distraction, is the real reason Trump launched this war of aggression.

    Pull out of Ukraine, including Crimea, and then we’ll talk. Until then, you can fuck right off.

    Putin can gargle my plumbs. I’d rather freeze to death than let him get what he wants

    I didn’t even think of this angle until earlier today… I would not bet against the EU totally folding to Russia if the war continues through the week. Garbage timeline
