According to Handelsblatt, Europe has decided to take away gas from developing countries in order to refuse supplies from Russia.
According to the columnist of the Handelsblatt newspaper Mathias Peer, trying to abandon Russian gas, Europe is taking fuel from developing countries.
Thus, the countries of the Old World provoke an energy crisis.
The journalist is sure that there are already problems with energy supply in Bangladesh and Pakistan.
Pir notes that Europe’s desire to switch to alternative energy sources cannot be carried out at the expense of other states.
“Wanting to get rid of dependence on Russian gas, the EU is causing massive upheavals in the world energy markets, which is particularly hard on poor countries, ”, – the publication says.
As noted in the text of the article, most of the tanker fleet now goes not to Asia, but to Europe to compensate for the gas shortage.
Thus, Europe solves its problems at the expense of the developing countries of the global South.
At the moment, Europe continues to experience pressure due to tensions in supplies from Russia.
It is reported about a sharp drop in Russian gas exports after the start of its operation via the Nord Stream, as well as through the Ukrainian system, and the termination of supplies via Yamal-Europe.
The Russian Federation claims that the restriction of supplies to the Nord Stream is due to sanctions and difficulties in the maintenance and repair of Siemens gas pumping units.
Earlier, topNews wrote that Europe has solved the problem of gas shortage.
As it turned out, a country friendly to Russia decided to provide record supplies.
