What happens if Russia cuts off gas supplies to Europe? | DW Business Special 

Unfortunately the rest of us are paying the price along with them. Here in Spain energy prices have been skyrocketing for over a year.

@@beeilve thats supply and demand. if you pay for utilities and everyone starts using them more all at the same time that is what youd expect to happen.

@@wamingo EU troll alert.

The cool thing is that as Europe weans themselves off Petrochemicals, the US becomes an exporter as we seek alternatives for energy, and China's economy cools off, oil and gas prices long term will go way down. Russia's ability to pay for half of their government with oil is going to go away. $20 a barrel will destroy the Russian economy.

@@defcreator187 LNG makes up only a few % of Europe gas demands and for good reason.

@@Sergeyspb2009 It is easy to blame Russia for every single fail. If the minister says the turbine repair is a pretext, then send these turbines to Gasprom and see if they start sending gas or not.

@@KazimierzSurma They sanctioned themselves.

​@@Sergeyspb2009 You're spamming that comment everywhere. With slight differences in countries for reply purposes Mr. Bot. Also - Polish government has many faults. Very effing many. But sadly I have to inform you that Russian government stopped deliveries to Poland. Gas flowed through for some more time to other countries, but of course we couldn't take it, unless we had permission of said countries. We did get it BTW. Also wasn't Poland against Nord Stream 1 and 2, because it would be a risk to Yamal-Pipeline? And the yearly Russian "blackmail"? That literally was threatened every year before the Nord Stream was built and sometimes carried out. After Nord Stream was opened every year the pipeline was being closed for "some reason" often for months. But Germans got their Gas through Nord Stream. I'm not saying your strategy of trying to divide EU nations is not working. But correct one glaring mistake that all of you bots and trolls make - EU subsidies aren't "mostly German money". Germany might be the largest contributor, but isn't the only one. Also fun fact, Poland is quite fast on it's road to be netto contributor for EU budget, rather than it's largest beneficiary like we're now? Strength of EU subsidies doesn't come from raw amount of money, but from the fact that in most cases it is distributed more smartly and efficiently. So even if we end up paying more than we get from EU since next budget (or more likely somewhere in the middle of that next budget) - we will still benefit overall. Same goes for Germany. And fun fact - Gas port was also built with EU "subsidies". And it is being expanded. We at least tried to diversify. Of course it was also not enough, but at least an attempt was made. Which is why Poland is in slightly better situation technically. But not really, since the rules of EU will force all countries to share with whomever will need the most. And I don't have the problem with Gas imported to Poland being used to help some people in other countries that are struggling. Also you completely misunderstand the point about the Turbine. Either you didn't listen or you simply don't understand how maintenance works. So you're either talking about something about which you have no idea or you didn't watch the video and just started spamming.

Putin doesn't have to do anything. He can just watch Europe blow it's own head off trying to hit him.

No one is impartial. My take on it is this. Due to US foreign policy the conflict within Ukraine had basically created a proxy war between Nato states and Russia. Because Europe illegally seized Russian assets IE the money Europe gives to Russia for gas and oil. Russia has made the decision to reduce the amount of gas given to Europe as they no longer see them as friends. Germany is allowing the Americans to destroy their economy and probably the EU. There is no other reason why the gas is being suppressed.

Top 5 Nuclear Disasters 5. Three Mile Island Nuclear Accident Pennsylvania, USA 1979 (INES Level 5) The Three Mile Island Unit 2 (TMI-2) reactor, near Middletown, Pennsylvania, suffered a partial melt down on March 28, 1979. The most serious accident in U.S. nuclear power plant history was caused by a relief valve failure, after an unplanned shutdown, causing severe damage to the core. Better instrumentation, training programs and public information would have vastly improved matters but luckily there were no injuries or discernible health impacts. 4. Windscale Fire Nuclear Disaster Sellafield, UK 1957 (INES Level 5) On 10 October 1957 a raging inferno swept through the core of Unit 1 nuclear reactor at Windscale, Cumberland (now Sellafield, Cumbria) for three days. The Level 5 accident dumped radioactive contamination across Europe and it is thought that traces of isotope iodine-131 may have caused several hundred cancer diagnoses. Windscale's two piles had been hastily built during the British atomic bomb project. It was the UK's worst ever nuclear accident. 3. Kyshtym Nuclear Disaster Russia 1957 (INES Level 6) The third most serious nuclear accident in history happened at the secretive Mayak plant, near the Russian town of Kyshtym - part of the Soviet Union's attempt to match the US for weapons-grade plutonium production. After a faulty cooling system was left to disrepair, rising temperatures resulted in an explosion with the equivalent force of 70-100 tons of TNT. Nuclear fallout reached more than 300 kilometres away and, due to the classified nature of the plant, it was only a week later that 10,000 locals were evacuated from the area. 2. Fukushima Nuclear Disaster Japan 2011 (INES Level 7) On Friday 11 March 2011 the Great East Japan Earthquake, which measured 9.0 on the Richter scale, caused a 15-metre tsunami that disabled the power supply and prompted three reactor meltdowns at the Fukushima Daiichi plant. Official figures suggest that more than 1,000 deaths occurred as a result of an evacuation process that displaced more than 100,000 people. Subsequent investigations have suggested that the infrastructure and risk forecasting were inadequate for such a devastating natural disaster. It was only the second accident in history to receive the most severe Level 7 rating. 1. Chernobyl Nuclear Disaster Ukraine 1986 (INES Level 7) The Chernobyl disaster is the worst nuclear power plant accident ever in terms of death toll and cost. The only other Level 7 accident happened on 26 April 1986 when a steam explosion destroyed reactor number four at the Ukrainian plant. Resulting fires spread huge amounts of radioactive waste across Western Europe, killing around 30 people from acute radiation poisoning in the immediate aftermath and raising longterm fears of increased instances of thyroid cancer. The World Nuclear Association says... “The nuclear disaster was the product of a flawed Soviet reactor design coupled with serious mistakes made by the plant operators.”

That's not true. Some countries just get LNG simply because they are not connected to central Europe's pipelines and that is it. Nothing to do with having or not historical vision.

The minister in charge has been systematically lying and obfuscating. His lies have been debunked, yet the German media do not confront him. This is going to be tough for the German population in winter.

The Green nutters will not be happy.

Nuclear reactors needs fuel as well.

@@Rayornick Uranium. Kazakhstan, Canada and Australia sells them

Nonsense. Germany and the EU as a whole operate on their own policy as an emergent third pole. If they would be "subservient" to the US, they would not have been buying so much gas from Russia for literally decades. The question is, why should Germany maintain its friendly approach to Russia when the latter is plunging the continent into war? Does Germany not have the sovereignty to be shocked and angered by this breach of peace and trust?

Considering how many Ukrainians have been murdered by Putin, Russia deserves no respect. Russia is a criminal country. I'm looking forward to the war crimes trials and seeing Russians in prison.

... to formulate lasting tyranny and fascism in Russia, which manifests itself in colonialism and brutal wars

Yes you got the point.. and we are talking about US tyrant right?.. it's happened for decades how can't we see it

Occupied country

Now you are at the mercy of America good luck 😅.

The nuclear decision is not a bad one as you suggest. We in the US has tried and failed after 50 long years to find a permenent disposal site for radioactive waste. And what is Japan doing with the millions of gallons of radioactive water they have stored after the Fukashima meltdown? They're releasing it into the ocean. The mistake was to follow the neocons and declare economic war on Russia. The same neocons that invaded Iraq based on the lie of WMDs and killed 1 million Iraqi civilians.

@@therealistOba it's an ally so why not

And yet, it is not the ONLY country powering up coal plants. Even in the West. But Germany is easier to pin guilt.

World leaders have no clue.. Germany tries to escape nuclear.... supplies nuclear terrorists with business.... Putin ties to reduce NATO at border.....NATO at record expansion....no clue 🌎🔥
