one, still it's the 3rd data in europe. in fact, the drive is the only biomass facility to rank in the continents plan of c o, 2 emitted, today you have it while selling itself as comp and neutral. running would actually bounces out more emissions and from burning coal, you to its lower energy density than fossil fuels would, has to be burned in higher volumes to produce the same amount of energy. but in no attempt to clear the air, drax responded to the claim, saying, the figure is a false. figures are inaccurate and completely at all. it's with what the world's leading climate scientists at the you into governmental panel on climate change, say the both sustainable biomass been crucial to deliver in global climate targets . despite the thick of the site still managed to attract more than 800000000 pounds in u. k. government subsidies, that's a 2000000 pounds every single day in 2020 alone. because of course why our energy production reflects well on the government's climate record. but all of this is left the locals. the

so not stream to again, could help them out, could help europe, europe out and because it, well it is, it is a new technology and it can handle the large volumes. but well, it is being opposed to the launch of nord string to is being opposed due to political resit reasons. russia says, so. so far russia has been very understanding and will, has been doing according to the russian president again, everything that it could. but it is unclear as to how many more steps russia will take, you know, are which won't be reciprocated for some of her dates relation. i really enjoyed as well. basically, a u energy officials got greedy thought of being clever, and they messed up. thanks so much enjoy that they get it better than i did. now, thea, natural gas price in europe, as we said, it's in soaring salt on ice recently. it's now nearly 6 times what it was in the spring while and is put the continent on course for major energy crunch and laid bare internal divisions within the block over brussels green policies. what is peter oliver explains? while prices are as high as they are on the commodit

i and i haven't been to europe. and i don't, i don't understand the point that you're making see, she hasn't been to europe though. what does that have to do with her job to handle? one of america's worst ever boarded problems. ran in yours is a little bit. and if you think about it camel harris fits perfectly into the now very political hollywood crowd. and just like silver screen superstars, sometimes she just misses the target with some of her statements just a few days ago with israel, which has my heart because i think that people have that that. and again, this is about the fact that your voice, your perspective, your experience, your truth, and then just like a good agency, her office has to clear the air. while visiting george mason university to discuss votes and writes a student voice to personal opinion during the political science class, the vice president stroke would disagree with the student's characterization of for israel smiles and handshake. so they work miracles when you're making a movie, korea,

we are in criminals and terrorists, a terrorist threat both in europe. i know north america since we'll have enough gummy. so if you did look out, i mean i'm talking about dealing with serious organized trauma, trafficking, lots of dealing with trafficking, those type of fences and terrorism. and i think the point that was made, but you know, it's only allowing, like counter terrorism agencies, policing agencies in the u. k will be like the national con, one. you know, a, we agency those things you wouldn't giving 70 police force. it was like when we were in the european union, michigan information system, which was a database that wasn't available. so the police force in the u. k. it was only to send an offices and the pounds i just happens and all of them in the united states were, were abuse we just to be with. so if it was, if it was utilized and executed for what it was written up more than a 100 percent, if it oversight was proper on it. and i think it would be a great tool. i think that, but we just, we always take something that's, that's meant t

, then europe gets new opportunities and a new world. europe is love any longer, completely dependent to the united states. so the america united america playing dia, politics to preserve their global leadership role as the only superpower. and they don't care about consumer prices and energy security. in europe, they care on their ah power. and that's the game giant. and so they, they are supporting the warranty ukraine they are attacking. and then she surprised russia. it's one strategy. and what we see is, is a part of that strategy let. so let's, let's talk more about this gas issue and what, what is going to a bit of a gas argument really. so no stream to the, the latest russian gas pipeline going directly from russia under the baltic into germany. it's basically completed now and they've just started putting gas just in the 1st section of his pipeline now. so it's not going to get to europe for a while. but there are numerous rash, russian gas pipelines that feed europe from the north, from the east, from the south as well. does it, you know, after all these years of anti russia

our gas supplied to europe. the number one ingredient in mr. putin's recipe for the volatility in prices, not to come back any time soon. that is a long term contracts when gas prices aren't fixed, but they depend on the current market situation and the oil prices. by the way, what's the major cause for concern for some very important european politicians, is the transit of russia natural gas through ukraine beyond 2024. well, lot of our putin said that russia is ready to keep that in place, as long as it knows how much gas europe is willing to buy in the future. i. e, he wants these long term contracts again. what russia ones is stability and predictability. he'll become on our international catholic bishops in france, are at odds with the government. after a damning report reveals hundreds of thousands of crimes against children covered up by the clergy. we're from one of the victims after a short break. this is the weekly, on our, to international. mm. ah . hello, driven by drainage shaped bank. concur. some

this is what europe. once to that, latimer poke and says, well, what we need is contracts long term contracts to understand how much gas europe needs in the future. and then, and in that case, we can then decide how much gas goes through the park is stream. that's what the pipeline through the black sea is called, how much gas we can send through our north stream pipeline and to ukraine as well. but mr. poodles, general answer to that was, yes, russia is ready to maintain its ukrainian transit. besides this, mr. who went on to talk about something that doesn't really have to do with energy . but this is something that the moderator asked the russian leader that was about russia relations with washington and about arm's security. mister bruton said that russia is ready to talk with washington ready for talks with washington on the revival of possibly some of the older treaties that washington abandoned under donald trump, under the previous cedars as well. or that it's ready to hammer out new agreements, w

and this in turn led to shortages of supplies in europe. in particular, the prices for natural gas at one point skyrocketed to unprecedented levels and death that many analysts indeed call this a true global energy crisis. but in that times, specifically russia by some has even been blamed for politicizing the matter. and before that for years, moscow has been under fire for some of its infrastructure projects like gas, the nord streaming, to in particular for direct natural gas deliveries from russia to the northern coast of germany. and like i've been hearing from many experts here on day one of russia's energy we get there has been reassessment. and reassessment is also something that mr. putin has been talking about. he also spoke about what he called mistakes on the part of a some of brushes partners when it comes to their energy policies. so let's have a look at what else the russian leader said about that austin nuggets via group is higher prices on gas in europe are a consequence of a deficit of energy and not vice versa. and that's

our gas supplied to europe. the number one ingredient in mr. putin's recipe for the volatility in prices. not to come back any time soon. that is a long term contracts when gas prices aren't fixed, but they depend on the current market situation and the oil prices. by the way, what's a major cause for concern for us? some very important european politicians is the transit of russian natural gas through ukraine beyond 2024. well, lot of putin said that russia is ready to keep that in place, as long as it knows how much gas europe is willing to buy in the future. i e, he wants these long term contracts again, what russia ones is stability and predictability. we discussed the issue with international and strategic affairs expert francis peron, he thinks that there is a u turn happening within the u over the use of russian gas with some countries now striving to import more separate. jessica, you add up to the new in that she strategy, which is scored a net sheet union, which means to speak clearly for you again, co

, we in short guaranteed uninterrupted gas deliveries to europe. we have every reason to believe that this year we will reach record levels of gas deliveries on the global market. when prices are volatile, when they're going through the roof, what can help with that extra supplies? president prudent said that there was not a single occasion when rushes energy joined gas from refused a request from europe for additional natural gas exports. and what mr. brewton was asked a straightforward question whether moscow has ever used the energy sector as a political weapon. his answer was straightforward. no, want to ask you about it directly. has russia been using energy as a weapon? russia's not using any weapons. if you've been paying attention as for the economy, where are we using weapons in what conflicts are we taking part and for the economy? this is not something we tend to use. this is what i call a politically motivated talk. there's nothing to support it when it comes to saying that we use energy as some kind of weapon at the end of the day. i g

p. europe business school in london. welcome to you, sir. as well as prompt getting your overall taken. what's happening now in europe? can i put one aspect to you? the hungarian prime minister has laid the blame for the current gas crisis in europe at brussels doorstep. do you agree that the use push for renewables may have played a role? indeed, it is a major reason for the classes in europe. european loan has been pushing nicholas he for his transition at the expense or i'm dr. collection. in sobering, it has affected investment and production of oil and gas. and without that fixing the demand for them, which means they why, again, the better sense in the market. hence, you're not getting and gas prices. now. they're not a moral. they have been paying politics with the stream turn gas pipeline. if they won't, they won't gas from russia. they should have issued a temporarily operation. her license for not assume can 15 trial b cubic meters. just do that. and then we'll let you go before january the start doing a cation process. so our ques

and europe. as you just said, in your, your 1st story is very dependent, still dependent on the guest deliveries from russia, from our region, from other parts of the world. and russia has built this infrastructure to help her europe, to secure the energy flows through europe. but again, there is this political logical problem, the brussel commission of the you and of course, party like the greens they are a lot of forces in the european union of other countries, especially in the east europe. even countries are against to close corporation with russia out of political reasons, not of commercial reasons. the did seem to be this relentless push towards green policies and with no stream to if that is implemented on it gets the, the full go ahead in europe. might it slow down those policies that depends to be seen, but germany wants to become the, the model for green policy, for a building, a green modernized economy. and it's very stubborn in that. and you will see that the new government in german

as europe grapples with high prices. the president also agrees to boost supplies to the you while saying the block brought the crisis on itself. what church against the state catholic bishops in france at loggerheads with the government after a report reveals hundreds of thousands of crimes against children committed by the clergy. we speak to one of the victims. when we came to france, i was 8 and 9 years old. so i spent almost 2 years there until i was sexually assaulted. but pray not what shameful is not apologizing for an atrocity committed in catholic institutions on hundreds of children. ah. i brought kathy live direct from our studios in moscow. this is our t international. glad to have you with us as we recap to weeks top stories. but 1st we start with our special coverage of a trail blazing russian film. their crew returned to earth from the international space station. actress julia per sealed ended director clement chapin co spent 12 days on board. the i assess making the world's 1st movie shot in orbit. ah ah

and it's going to mean soaring bills from millions of households all across europe. some ag politicians have pointed the finger at russia's gas from accusing it of manipulating the market to push through the approval of the nor stream to gas pipeline. but vladimir putin is pledged to boost gas supplies, appears to have lessened these concerns in the western media. have a listen to this at russia wants it to be approved. but i don't think much is really doing anything wrong here. you know, europe has a supply crunch. russia has the gas to supply it. russia does instantly benefit from care for the market. they want high stable prices and they want to be seen as a reliable partner. some words soothing words, i guess which we rarely get from mr. potent actually helped reverse that. 3540 percent jump over night in natural gas over in europe. desson element off of rossa playing politics, but there's also an element of a mom of money having been invested in noise being do not just on the russian side from the european side as well. with outgoing german chancellor, anglo mer

i agree with europe. the city authorities had the right to not to promote algebra t everyone has this prize. nubian union should find another way it look like that. i'm not a sign of pro l g b t zones. that on the other hand, every one has a right to their own life. in under part of the european union, it is very unfair. such things should not be combined. here is the man and here's the money. they're completely separate matters. i think nothing should be done by force. if there is no such need in poland, you do not have to force anything local governors justified there. you turn saying that they are not ready to be accountable for the financial loss. when expert we heard from told us that such an approach by the you to maintain unity in the block as a path to dictatorship. every local power should act according to the wheel. and i have a lot of a degree of power, especially in this case, especially in this case. so, you know, i'm not entering into the subject matter, not talking about about the lesbian g

he also pledged to supply more gas if europe requested it. he also stressed the importance of the now completed nord stream to gas pipeline, under the baltic sea, which is still awaiting the final green light from europe. this year to look up as far as north stream to has been served or what opponents and the project have claim that this is not a commercially viable product and russia, if pursuing geopolitical motivations week, well, you know, this is yet another ballistic nonsense. is that what i just like to pay closer attention to what i'm saying on this route is 2000 kilometer shorter and quicker to our main consumers in europe that and via ukraine d. c. 2000 kilometers more efficient. it's cheaper because transit is cheaper to do, and it's also cheaper for common virtues because the transit fee has to be included in the ann rice in particular for european customers. we are doing this, it isn't white, are political differences. this year we have increased supply by 10 percent. again, let me very much like them to be grateful. instead of o

and i believe they would have pushed more gas in europe. and so therefore we wouldn't be in such a dire situation today. terry, appreciate you coming on, get your expert analysis, my guest here, ross energy expert, thank you. thank you. with a natural gas price in europe. i mentioned it a moment ago. i sought in fact, as an all time record, it's now nearly 6 times incredible. what it was just in the spring with a consonant uncles for major energy crunch and it is light that internal divisions within the block of brussels green policies. it oliver has ml, while prices are as high as they are on the commodities markets. this isn't so much going to trickle down to consumers as perhaps these prices are gonna fall upon homeowners from a more domestic home uses, form a great height to what we've heard from the european commission president ursula found a lion is that she recognizes that there are major problems that we're facing right now and problems that are coming down the pipe further along, but says that in the long term, it's renewable ener

in europe, gets new opportunities and a new world or europe is not any longer, completely dependent to the united states. so d, america, europe, america, plain dia, politics, to preserve their global leadership as the only superpower and they don't care about consumer prices and energy security in europe, they care on their level palmer. and since we have a lot of pro american politicians here, a whole industry of tags, this is very powerful. so what we have there is no rational reason there is no, there is no rational reason because the rushing behavior or because of economic interest. but the reason behind is angie rushing rave is g in politics made by the deep state in washington, dc. i still had on the weekly billions of people had an unexpected digital detox this week has facebook fell offline for ours? not once, but twice. one of our stores to come after the break. join me every thursday on the alex salmon. sure. i'll be speaking to guess in the world . politics. sport. business. i'm show business. i'll see you then. 020 years ago the taliban were different today or more viole

not in a spot in europe, but on an exchange in st. petersburg. but in general, exchange trading is not very effective because it carries a lot of risks. is not a watch shorts and ties or a car, or even oil that can be produced and stored anywhere. gas is not sold like that on the market problem being, it seems that they're just on in of contract. people haven't contracted into long term gas supplies. so obviously russia is not going to want to be made out of the bud guy here. what can you do with regards the pricing? well, man, you're absolutely right. and the thing is i, the european lawmakers might have shot themselves in the foot here. and well, of conceptually nuclear, the wallets of the end of the line consumers of ordinary europeans. so here's, here's the thing about natural gas. it's not oil, you can just, you know, get it one time stored in a barrel until you needed, and then you will access it. no, it doesn't work like that. you can't store natural gas. so what the european lawmakers came up with, they decided that they would switch from

some of the concerns in europe, do you think? well, i think we have to admit that russia is like the backbone of our gas supply in europe . and so round about 40 percent of the gas supplies originate from russia. and of course it's a strong cycle, a signal that now and not stream to pipeline has been finished and there is hope for a good and stable. and also it cannot mix supply of natural gas for the european union. and i'm proud that germany was able also to stay firm in this project and not to give up a because of the resistance. also, the european union was getting greater and greater, not only on behalf of the united states to complete this project. we need that project. we see it now with the soaring gas prices. and i hope that we will find a solution soon to fill up the gas reset wars again because they are only at 30 percent, which is quite low before the winter is beginning. and as we've spoken about on occasion before, liner at the north stream to pipeline has been bug done with sanctions delays over the years. do you t

now in terms of storage now in europe and the u. k. were at about not 76 percent, which compares with the 10 year average of 90 percent. now if we get a cold winter ahead, we could see that dictated down to 8 percent, which is a record low. and even if we just say as a normal winter, not too cold, that still gonna get depleted town to around 19 percent, which is the 2nd lowest in a decade. so it really does feel as though this problem isn't going anywhere. take years, we head into a cold winter. now on top of that, there have been weather concerns because there has been a historically low levels of wind, which has meant that renewables have been suffering because turbines haven't been powered as well as they might normally be. yeah, one more time we'd get into that with you, but we're just right. i'd for tory, a scholar, market on live and our to international. thank you very much. thank this is are to still ahead front, threatens the current power supplies to the you carry a mid, a post briggs rover, fishing writes about 3 and more co

we are increasing that will not decreasing our gas supply to europe. the number one ingredient in mr. perkins recipe for the volatility in prices. not to come back any time soon. that is a long term contracts when gas prices aren't fixed, but they depend on the current market situation and the oil prices. by the way, what's a major cause for concern for us? some very important european politicians is the transit of russian natural gas through ukraine beyond 2024. well, lot of our putin said that russia is ready to keep that in place. as long as it knows how much gas europe is willing to buy in the future, i. e, he wants these a long term contract. again. what russia ones is stability and predictability of this mind. some apparent misunderstandings between us automate potent than in the american news anchor. moderating the panel. the russian leader gave the c and b . c. finance channel, an exclusive interview on the sidelines of the forum. he shut his thoughts on the controversial orcus security pipe between australia, britain, and the us, as well as hi

is trying to turn europe against moscow. so your list of 30 of them will go to the us openly say that cooperation with russia is contrary to europe's energy security interests. they want to directly embroiled in this area and reduce our independence. europe's future could look pretty bleak without russian gas. so why would washington treat its friends like this? the pipeline has been completed and it's, it's to the situation now is about approval on the you is in a fiscal situation when the pressure is going to be maybe not immediately, but the pressure is going to be substantially got this over the line if with 2 months from now we're in the midst of a cold wind. sudden pressure is going to ramp open. i don't think sanctions is going to ultimately get in the way of out at any rate. winter is approaching. there's not enough warmth to go around. and gas prices have been getting heated. ah ah, to make matters worse, this energy crisis is in danger of becoming a food crisis in the netherlands. energy shortages are forcing green

, badden, europe gets new, opportunity is ended, you world europe is not any longer, completely dependent to the united states. so d, america, america are playing d a politics to preserve their global leadership as the only superpower and they don't care about consumer prices of energy security in europe, daycare on their part. and since the whole others, pro american politicians here over close on equal art interest, thousands of taken to the streets of italian capital in a protest against coven restrictions. people have been angry at plans. introduce for mandatory health passes to access work places. the rules will come into full toronto, the 15th. the government says that the moves necessary, the virus under control, the head of an expected rise in cases in the winter when people will be spending more time inside those failing to present a pass or negative test result face being suspended. notice is flame. it's an infringement on their rights. molly is accused french forces of training extremist groups submit a deepening feud between the countries. 16 molly and soldiers were ambushed a

and you said that you are not supplying gas through pipelines to europe. but actually, you are mistaken, you are mistaken. and all of those who feed on the information they receive, we are actually increasing our supplies to europe. or the reality is there's a whole multitude of reasons for why demand for gas in europe is currently so high . and why supplies of gas and reserves of gas are so low. so when you've got that high demand and you've got, but while low availability, you get high prices. and that's what we're seeing at the moment we have heard from vladimir putin in the recent past though, saying that once russia's own reserves of gas have been replenished, that we may well see russian supply is supplying more of that gas to europe. i, peter, thanks for that. the pakistani national has been cleared fraud release from america's guantanamo bay prison after 17 years in confinement. this comes 6 years after the u. s. concluded he should never have been there in the 1st place as he was mistaken originally for a terrorist. and even out of on his fate is

we in short guaranteed uninterrupted gas deliveries to europe. we have every reason to believe that this year we will reach record levels of gas deliveries on the global market and due to one. ah, what exactly could help europe in this particular situation? what kinda make sure the prices go down. well, perhaps the answer is obvious. that is, extra supplies to the continent. and what mister pope said during that panel discussion was that whenever russia was request it for a boost in exports the answer from moscow. the answer from gas from russia's gas, that was always yes. so russia never said no. and when mister proven was asked a direct question whether moscow was ever using energy as a political weapon. the answer from them, from his, from him, sorry, was straightforward. the answer was no one to ask you about it directly. has russia been using energy as a weapon? russia is not using any weapon capsule. if you've been paying attention, as for the economy where we're using weapons and what conflicts are we taking part and for the economy, this

s. less rain in china and brazil, less wind in europe. i don't know while or visit events appeared, occur. but this, as i would say, well or the inventories on gas. and so we see today and exceptional circumstance, i think that after winter time we should be able to come back to better prices and lower prices, which would be good for everybody. thanks so much for that, patrick, i'm going to bring in bernard at this point when you think about this with regards to b p, we understand that the you, of course, is talking about composing legislation today. they're going to roll that out in brussels, which would essentially require that all oil and gas drilling would be stopped in the arctic and that there would be an inability to bring those products to market. obviously that would impact to total energy. that would impact be potentially and how worried are you about that? well, again, and it's great to be here and in moscow as well. thank you for including b p in the conversation. i think what this crisis in europe regard to prices has reminde

the natural gas price in europe has soared to an all time record. it is now as 6 times higher than it was in the spring on bouts pumped the continent on course for a major energy crunch. lieber internal divisions within the block over brussels green policies. as ortiz peter oliver report, while prices are as high as they are on the commodities market, this isn't so much going to trickle down to consumers as perhaps these prices are gonna fall upon homeowners. from a more domestic home users form a great height to what we've heard from the european commission. president ursula found a lion is that she recognizes that there are major problems that we're facing right now and problems that are coming down the pipe further along. but says that in the long term, it's renewable energy that are going to keep energy prices low across europe. i think we have to be very clear that the gas prices are skyrocketing and her, but the renewables, the prices have decreased over the last years. and are stable so fast is very clear that with energy in the long term, it

people are very worried about this in europe and, and then we're ready. the fingerprinting's are happening. oh, what is really behind all this as you see it cutting through it all. okay. there is no lack of gas in the world. and a good example of it is the fact that the price of gas is not increased by one euro cent in the united states of the last you. but while can europe, it has increased by more than a 100 percent over one year, which is of course a lot and winter is there. so the, the cyclical and very temporary increase of the price of gas on will last for another few my, what's going wrong, hitler failed. why is more happening? what's happened this year was different. this is cooper compared to other years. we've had cold spells in the past. come, yup, not even that cold yet. yet, but it's the end of the covey. pandemic andy energy is early. a coming is recovering. so everybody asks for or gas the reserves are low. so there is a lot going on everywhere. economically speaking in asia and in europe, and so the demand is high and the spot prices are g

just days after the legend person pledged to boot supplies to europe, dozens of people i reported the code in an apparent suicide bomb attack on a sham mosque in northern afghanistan. it comes just 5 days after. and now that talk that also targeted at most with the european parliament ponce's and known binding resolution seeking to farm police use a facial recognition software and public places with m. p. 's having it as a major victory. our gas base b is good museum in criminals. and cherish, that'll be abused like crazy. there's a great saying and law enforcement goods. when you're a hammer, everything looks like a nail. ah, this is been using all seen to national with me you national follow the thanks for joining cause a growing in the u. s. to slap new sanctions on russia over the new stream to pipeline in light of europe's enterprises. it comes just days after vladimir putin splish to ramp up natural gas supplies to europe, as prizes hate record highs. aussies donal court. i took my colleague unit o'neill through the details. they're basically being accused of trying to artificia

our gas supplied to europe. the number one ingredient in mr. putin's recipe for the volatility in prices. not to come back . any time soon, that is a long term contracts when gas prices aren't fixed, but they depend on the current market situation and the oil prices. by the way, what's a major cause for concern for us? some very important european politicians is the transit of russian natural gas through ukraine beyond 2024. well, lot of putin sent that russia is ready to keep that in place, as long as it knows how much gas europe is willing to buy in the future. i e, he, once these long term contract, again, what russia ones is stability and predictability. the till catholic bishop in france has apologized and backtracked, after claiming church secrecy is above the law. he was earlier reprimanded by the interior minister, foreseeing that when priests learn of crimes during confession, they're not compelled to tell the police. it follows an inquiry which on earth more than $300000.00 alleged sex crimes against c

and it's a very similar message that we've seen across the media in europe. if we go over to the netherlands, similar headlines that we're seeing there also over german publications here, going with very, very similar message in belgium. what we're hearing is that russia has the chance to make or has the possibility to make europe shiver this winter while in austria, they're suggesting that russia is using gas in order to put pressure on europe. what's really interesting though, is what we're seeing in the media is a very different message to what's coming out from your opinion. leaders in the commissioner for, for energy. that's country simpson. she said, just at the beginning of this month, that while there was no additional gas coming from russian supply is to meet the increased demand from europe that bo same russian suppliers were meeting the very letter of all of the contracts that they signed with european countries. and it's a similar message that we've heard from german chancellor angle, a miracle, as well as the gift kind to my knowledge. there are

then europe gets new opportunities and a new world. europe is not any longer, completely dependent to the united states. so d, america, europe, america, are playing politics to preserve their global leadership role as the only superpower and they don't care about consumer prices of energy security in europe, daycare on there are. and since we have all others pro american politicians here, whole industry of turns, this is very powerful. so what we have there is no rational reason there is no, there is no rational reason because of russia b a no, because on ecology inches. but the reason behind is angie rushing. rave is g in politics made bought a deep stain on washington dc rushes sputnik v. coven. maxine is close to being approved by the world health organization. i spoke to person for the w. h. o. me that announcement on friday, but getting sputnik certificates recognized internationally is proving to be an uphill struggle in germany. a law maker from the left party is filing a lawsuit after local authorities failed to accept his sputnik fee certificate. d thur dim se that means peop

now the, the prices for natural gas futures in europe have absolutely skyrocketed. they went down a bit. but in the meantime, russia was being accused of politicizing the matter. and for years this country has been under fire for its infrastructure project in the field, like the nord stream to however, this crisis led to reassessment i. this is while the russian leader has been talking about for a while. and he also brought up what he called mistakes in the european energy policies that lead to the crisis austin nuggets. myer prices on gas in europe are a consequence of a deficit of energy and not vice versa. and that's why you should not shift the blind newsline over the last 10 years. step by step, systematic flaws were introduced into the european energy system, russia and they led to a of energy, chrysler the way ceased for any marketing stability. unpredictability are important . when russia flawlessly fulfills its contractual obligations to our partners, including our partners in europe, but we, in short guaranteed uninterrupted gas deliveries to your and we h
