Buying gas off Russia and supplying weapons to Ukraine. Tbf they can't be accused of not putting their hands in their pockets. I think this is why bold announcements on sanctions are often followed up by weak action - we are all too interdependent for even targeted/limited sanctions not to hurt everyone.Sure they could do without Russian gas but not overnight. They are buying $170,000,000 of it a day. They haven't stopped buying it since the war started.
Only if it's Thorium or Fusion though.We so need to adopt a combo of nuclear and renewables and fuck the middle East and Russia off
Not for me to say, but it was said about 3 days ago by Herr Habeck the German economy and climate minister, that they could do it, including buying gas and coal from elsewhere and using existing inventories. If you want to argue that he was wrong in what he said then please take it up with him. In the meantime I hope all the cunting russian banks get kicked out of SWIFT, not just the less “important” ones.Sure they could do without Russian gas but not overnight.

Absolutely, we need to focus on energy rather than weapons production. There are already enough nukes to burn the globe many times over.Only if it's Thorium or Fusion though.
The rhetoric around nuclear power needs to change. It is the best and most practical solution for our energy needs whilst we work on perfecting fusion power.We so need to adopt a combo of nuclear and renewables and fuck the middle East and Russia off
Not arguing and sincerely hope he's right, just saying it's a very big ask to do in a few days.Not for me to say, but it was said about 3 days ago by Herr Habeck the German economy and climate minister, that they could do it, including buying gas and coal from elsewhere and using existing inventories.

To an airbase in Poland near the border, then by road or train from there, simple logistics really.Just wondered if anyone on here had any ideas as to how the western governments are going to get these new armament shipments to Ukraine, are we just going to fly them in?

Imagine shooting down a NATO supply jet as a Russian military force. They'd know not to touch them or they bring the whole of NATO in and Putin does not want any excuse to do so.Just wondered if anyone on here had any ideas as to how the western governments are going to get these new armament shipments to Ukraine, are we just going to fly them in?
