Highlighted Comments
2027? The EU talks a lot but takes way too long to do anything.
Europe is bankrupt because of the stupidity of its leaders. Shame.
Sanctions haven't worked against Russia until now to stop its war, and it won't work.
Very misleading headline since the EU as a whole has massively reduced Russian LNG imports.
Finally. It's wild that Trump of all people had to be the one to push Europe to boycott Russia.
