>Europe is trying to get away from being dependent from Russian gas for strategic, not humanistic reasons.
I think the truth of this statement increases with a slight modification.
The US is trying to get Europe away from being dependent from Russian gas for strategic, not humanistic reasons.
Western European countries, and Germany especially have had to be pushed into supporting Ukraine.
- scrollaway 4y ago> Western European countries, and Germany especially have had to be pushed into supporting Ukraine. Absolutely untrue of "western countries", only of Germany. The american "push" was welcome as a sign of confidence that we could support Ukraine not merely on our own, but with the backing of the United States. But this is our continent that is under attack. The US wouldn't otherwise care, but taking down Russia is a huge get for them so they care.
