      Yeah yeah we know, its negligible compared to before, but reprehensible nonetheless and I wish we’d just cut it out.

      That said did you who also still maintains trade relations with Russia?

      U.S. IMPORTS FROM RUSSIA

      >US Imports from Russia fell to $2.50 billion in the first half of 2025 from $14.14 billion four years earlier, according to U.S. Census Bureau and U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis data. Since January 2022, the United States has imported $24.51 billion of Russian goods.
      FERTILIZERS
      Last year, the U.S. imported around $1.27 billion of Russian fertilizers, up slightly from $1.14 billion in 2021.
      URANIUM, PLUTONIUM
      The U.S. imported enriched uranium and plutonium from Russia worth around $624 million in 2024, down from $646 million in 2021.
      PALLADIUM
      Russia exported palladium to the United States for around $878 million in 2024, down from $1.59 billion in 2021.

    2. Disgraceful. But it shows how little these nations, who are not in the danger zone, care about us. Greece & Hungary especially are a disgrace with their positive attitude towards Russia. It’s just not good enough. We need to kick these infiltrators out of the EU, or the Baltics should make a stand and threaten to leave EU in favour of a Baltic Union instead.

      England stopped buying from Russia, instead they are buying from France. Now, do you guess where the gas comes from?

    4. Other countries are also buying from Russia but through other countries acting as intermediary. We are all still buying gas from Russia one way or another.

      And still facilitate Isreal, its needs, its sporting bodies, its trade, its war crimes …… it’s absolutely abhorrent behaviour behaviour.
      Usual double standards

      Imagine Trump lifting sanctions on Belarus to allow Boeing and others to deliver airplane parts. Do I even still need to point out that… ahh forget it, you get my point.

      Even a moron like Trumps get it right sometimes. Stop financing the Russian war machine!!

      It’s not as easy as:”Stop buying gas from Russia”.

      Some countries on the list like Greece, Hungary, Portugal, Slovakia and Spain might not be able to pay for gas from someone else. It’s more expensive and this is cheaper. A lot of citizens wouldn’t accept that.

      That’s the harsh reality, sanctions for gas would never work for these couple of countries.

      If anything, I’m not suprised by them, I’m suprised for France, Belgium and Netherlands. They can’t use the same excuse.

      I still find it ironic how the narrative of “Russia vs global West” was largely delusional until it was made real by continuous actions based on that delusion. And the fact that it takes so long to cut ties only shows how interconnected the world really was (at least economically) until a bunch of senile wackos in charge decided to reenact Cold War again.

      How the hell does russian gas get to Portugal. Wouldn’t it be easier to choose some closer country.

    11. It’s popular to bash the US again as evidenced on the commenters here. The warnings to Europeans to be aware of the risk on Russian energy dependence have gone back through various US administrations:
      Carter: 1979, immediately after Afghanistan invasion.
      Reagan: warned against Siberia pipeline to Europe.
      George HW Bush: US FUNDING for Asia to Europe pipeline to bypass the Russians. Never quite expanded.
      Clinton: documents re: back channel warning to Europe
      George W Bush: various warnings, most prominently, 2006 G8 summit IN Russia
      Obama: 2014 Brussels’speech
      Trump: 2018 NATO speech for which he was laughed and criticized for saying how much Germany was risking its security
