And thinking the world is moving away from fossil fuel might be the most delusional thing he's ever said.  Holy smokes.

Europe’s not mostly, Hungary (Orban), Slovakia (Fico) & Turkey (Erdogan) are doing the far, biggest piece of transactions. Those are all Trump pals whom he’s supposed to do cell phone deals with. Spain’s another, granted. But almost all of the rest of Europe is off the hook, Ukraine included.

Are newer forms of transportation banned here or something?  Last time I checked the company responsible for the electric car revolution was founded here and is still the market leader.  So spare me your SJW virtue signaling.

Take another look. I mean the graph. Chinese companies dominate,  & the Big 4 Euro companies outpace Tesla as a whole. But that was 2024.

And I think Toyota has something to say about who did what in the EV revolution. Chevy too though that died.

That’s from 2024, it’s gotten worse for Tesla in 2025. Link.

The northern route is shut down as you know. The ones through Ukraine are dead. & the ones through Turkey are on Erdogan, again that’s Trump’s personal pal.

You're not going to get anything more out of me as long as you ignore my main points to focus on ONLY the ones you think support your position, even if they don't.  It's a waste of my time.  I just wish pre TDS SID was posting here.

In the third quarter of 2025, the United States (59.9%) was the largest supplier of liquefied natural gas (LNG) to the EU (see Figure 9). It was followed by Russia (12.7%), Algeria (7.7%) and Qatar (6.0%). Compared with the third quarter of 2024, the share of the United States increased by 19.1 pp. By contrast, the shares of Russia (-5.2 pp) and Algeria (-5.8 pp) decreased in this period.

I’ll save you the trouble. There are pipelines that end up in Germany. They also went to 100 pct renewables some years back. Wait what?

FYI on the effect of the Ukraine shut down.

- Hungary & Slovakia are the biggest Byers & I’m guessing Belarus too.

- I think some of your data is a year old if even a year out. Germany (pipeline or any source) was one of the biggest sources but a lot changed in 2025. NL & Italy we’re up there but so was Belarus. But thats for Europe, worldwide it was minuscule compared to India & China. Germany at its peak might have been 5% of Russian revenue.

Pipelines end up in Germany. Right now. With fossil fuels flowing through them. This after they went to all renewables. Please stop arguing the point with your nonsense. Thanks.

TurkStream is the only Eussian pipeline left sending oil to Europe.

In 2024, China & India combined we’re taking in 64% of Russian oil revenues. Today Germany takes in zero. But most importantly overall Euro oil use is down dramatically regardless of source.

Sorry just one other thought on this. This is not about the whales or income equity in 3rd world countries, or even the deranged leader, it’s about capitalism. It’s about markets, cash, crude vs light oil & all means & methods of making energy & the making of many billions of $$$$ from all that.
