In favour of what? Dependency on the US gas at x2 the price? How's EU industry supposed to remain competitive at this energy prices?
- parkingrift 4y agoThe US has no such desire or even capacity to supply Europe with liquid natural gas. Nor does Europe have capacity to receive it. The goal was, always has been, and still is for the EU to have energy independence. That can only be accomplished by the EU pumping their own gas and oil, building their own nuclear power plants, etc. There is no lack of natural resources in Europe. Just a lack of planning, and an excess of unrealistic green ideology.

- parkingrift 4y agoWhat about it? This was after the energy crisis in Europe, not before. The quantities are so small it doesn’t even qualify as a stopgap. The US literally doesn’t have the capacity to supply Europe. Europe literally doesn’t have the infrastructure to receive LNG supplies. I seriously don’t even know what you’re on about here. It’s ironic to think that Europeans suspected ulterior motives from the US and so you literally cozied up to the fucking Russians. Europeans really know how to pick winners.
