- WastingMyTime89 5y agoGas is not more difficult to replace. Gas is impossible to replace. Europe can't satisfy its demand from gas without the Russian pipelines. It might in three years if they start building terminals now. It can't today.
- usr1106 5y agoNothing is impossible. Remember that 2.5 years ago we all said it would be impossible to stop international air traffic and close all borders between free countries. Still, it was possible. Some reopend earlier, some later. The US opened up for Europe just a couple of months ago. Australia opened only a couple of days ago. The question is what price people are willing to pay. The sad truth is that the Western people value their own energy bills or comfort much higher than Putin invading Ukraine.
