News are that we'll have replace 2/3 of Russian gas from somebody else by the end of the year [1]. It's going to be a rougher transition if we have to replace all of it but it's worth it. Same with wheat and oil. Hard times for a while but better than having to bow to Mr Putin. And this is only money, not bombs like in Ukraine.
By the way, the countries we'll be buying from are not much nicer than Putin's Russia (some of them maybe even less so) but at least they are smaller and hopefully more manageable. The next one to cut ties with should be China but that's a giant rope to undo.
