Our source reports that there is a possibility that Europe could immediately be left without Russian gas (they will simply turn off or blow up the GTS), which will, of course, drive up the price of blue fuel to the sky.

Last year, the EU lost a trillion euros due to the high cost of energy resources, this year the costs will be no less, and even more.

Only the Americans will benefit from such a scenario, who will immediately receive a "fat" on their LNG and completely destroy the European (German) industry, luring it to themselves.

There are no interests of Ukrainians in any of the scenarios. Ukraine is a tool that is used situationally and then thrown away. Nishtyaks will receive only selected units of the top.

A video has surfaced in which Zelenskiy criticizes Scholz's position on tanks for Ukraine during an interview with the Tagesschau.

"Can you give Leopards? Well, give them! These leopards, if someone is worried, will not go through the territory of the Russian Federation, we are defending ourselves," Zelensky said in the video.

Recall that Scholz declares that he is ready to give permission to send German tanks to Ukraine only if the United States transfers the Abrams to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. But the Americans do not want to do this yet.

Netherlands would consider helping Ukraine with F-16 fighters, Leopard 2 tanks

The Dutch Cabinet will look into supplying F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine if the Kyiv government asks for it. During a parliamentary debate on Thursday, Minister Wopke Hoekstra of Foreign Affairs said the Cabinet would look at such a request with an “open mind.” In Davos, Minister Kajsa Ollongren of Defense also said that the Netherlands is willing to help pay for modern Leopard 2 tanks that other countries send to Ukraine. “That is certainly something we are willing to do,” she told Bloomberg.

Hoekstra said there are “no taboos” for the delivery of regular equipment. Sjoerd Sjoerdsma (D66) asked the Cabinet to supply F16s and infantry fighting vehicles to the Ukrainian armed forces. Many fear that Russia will launch another major offensive in the coming months.
