The EC said about the high price of refusal from Russian energy resources


European Commission President Ursula Von der Leyen said that the refusal from Russian energy resources had cost Western countries dearly. On January 30, "RIA Novosti" writes that.
"Gas imports from Russia have been reduced by about 75%. Now we get from there only 3% of oil and do not use coal at all," she said and called the situation critical.
According to the agency's material, households and businesses have faced high electricity prices due to the refusal of Russian energy resources, which leads to the closure of enterprises and falling production.
Earlier, on January 24, Irish journalist Chay Bose said that the European Union (EU) has greatly underestimated its dependence on Russian energy resources. According to him, self-destruction on an industrial scale is the priority of the head of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen and her predecessors.
Before that, on January 13, it was reported that Moldova would face electricity shortages for the first time since the beginning of the crisis. It failed to reserve enough energy. It is specified that the Energocom company is actively urging citizens to reduce electricity consumption.
On the same day, Alice Weidel, chairwoman and candidate for chancellor of the Alternative for Germany (AdG), said that blackouts in Germany would continue as the country is a net importer of French nuclear energy and has the highest prices in the world in the energy sector.
