Nobody should live in a fantasy world
Many officials in Europe are making speeches that is baseless, far from reality. After Russia cuts off Europe’s gas, it is impossible for Europe to find enough natural gas from alternative sources, to find this gas in a short time, to overcome the transportation problem, and to keep the costs at a reasonable level. Therefore, it is impossible for it to prevent huge financial, political, social/social crises…
Europe’s natural gas crisis will not be a crisis they can solve in the short term and they will have to draw other pipelines with very high costs. They don’t have the money, they don’t have unity, and they don’t have the time to do this…
Azerbaijan gas is not plentiful and continuous enough to carry the burden of Europe. The natural gas of Qatar and the USA does not meet the needs of Europe, and it would be very difficult and costly to transport them.
So, if Russia cut off Europe’s gas, Europe would have to shut up. Apart from this, the comments made have no connection with the realities of life and do not go beyond any vain talk.
On the world political scene, there is a Western world that has already sunk. This natural gas crisis will cause them to experience crises in many different fields, and their current crisis to become even more gigantic. Even if Westerners want to live in a fantasy world, we Turks cannot break away from reality. We must turn our direction from west to east as soon as possible, and we are turning.
“Russia needs revenues from natural gas sales, so it will not cut gas.” Even the fact that sentences like this are made is a picture of how helpless Europe is. I don’t think it’s even an issue for Russia to mute the Western world, which is threatening to impose very heavy financial sanctions on Russia if conflict breaks out in the Russia-Ukraine crisis. After a short period of trouble, Russia can sell its natural gas to China in abundance and keep its natural gas revenues stable.
