The second the war ends Europeans will go back to buying Russian gas and shit.
It will be so embarrassing for liberals
They've invested everything on the cope Ukraine will win
I think Europe has gone to far down the war rabbit hole to buy directly from Russia agai . I maybe wrong, but Europe is gearing up for a new world war.
Europeans have viewed Russians as worse than the Nazis since Soviet soldiers took Berlin.
They still bought billions in Russian gas before the war
The European population will not notice or care, and the EU will never actually go to war against Russia.
I hope you are right.
Was russiophobia really that common pre euromaidan? I don't remember it that way.
It's in the background radiation of western political discourse for probably several centuries (especially the last one), but it has definitely gotten worse over the last few years. It's obviously just an extension of the European fear of "barbarians" (AKA the disgusting racism and xenophobia which justifies their constant genocides), which has been there for as long as Europe.
A lot of Europeans have been quietly waiting for the war to stop so we can go back to trading and doing capitalism with Russia.
You're obviously never going to hear this take much because it can get you fired from your job and it's a social taboo.
European politicians 100% wish the war was over so they could deport Ukrainians and buy Russian oil
After spending hundreds of billions on lpg ship terminals and inside jobbing the gas pipelines?
They have fully bought into the idea that they are going to win and that USA is their reliable friend. That's why they humiliate themselves like this, but honestly I can't wrap my mind around their actions sometimes, surely USA has to be pulling the strings or something no way anyone would actually choose to be like that by their own free will.
This is where the magic happens
