It was never about being that reliant on Russia, the goal was to transition so they could have many global competitors to choose from. That's why I said this goes back on to the European Commission basically because they are in charge of commerce across Europe and one of the most expensive items was the cost of energy. This really has nothing to do with green energy either really....but like I said I'll let you catch up first.

I have a pretty good idea of how the EC and the ECB works here, as well as the energy costs across Europe. A lot of people stateside seem to lump it all in together too, where they think that "Europe" is a single country - it is not - there is still a lot of differentiation between individual members.
Yeah I've argued that point to some out on the blogs. They seem to think that all the countries of Europe are signatories to a European Union Constitution and they are not. They've tried but thus far have failed to get all countries to agree to a set of terms.
What they are looking at here is what Trump termed "expansionist foreign power", within Germany with the European Commission acting as the catalyst.
