Vladimir Putin, speaking at a conference dedicated to the energy market, held in Moscow, sent a message to the European Union, in the midst of discussions on the price cap, a gas measure that was rejected by Germany and the Netherlands. “Russia will not provide energy resources to countries that limit their prices,” the Russian president reiterated on the roof of the fossil fuel price that many European countries are asking for.
“Russia – Putin added – is ready for additional energy supplies to Europe, also for this autumn-winter, the ball is in the hands of the EU”. The Kremlin’s number one, grappling with the war with Ukraine, also condemned the sabotage of the Nord Stream gas pipeline, calling it an “act of international terrorism”. This is a very dangerous precedent.” “Renewable energy must not be politicized” the latest message launched by the czar, who accused the European Union of wanting to promote green energy at the expense of gas and oil development.
