The Austrian Energy Ministry said as long as there is dependence on Russian gas supplies, "there is a massive risk of a corresponding supply failure with far-reaching consequences."

    It’s almost like they’ve had at least 3 years (if not longer) to prepare for this moment. Buy it somewhere else or find a renewable source. Giving money to dictators is never a good look no matter the reason.

    “We must end Austria’s dependency on Russian gas supplies as soon as possible,” the ministry said.

    I’m sure they’ll get right on that.

      Austria’s dependence on Russian gas rises to 98%, two years after Ukraine war

      Austria’s dependence on Russian gas has increased from 80% to 98% in two years, prompting the country’s energy minister to ring the alarm bell ahead of a national election due to take place in the Autumn.

      Feb 12, 2024

      “The diversification of our gas imports is progressing far too slowly. This culminates in a new record share of Russian natural gas in December of 98%,” the Green minister told the press in Vienna on Monday (12 February).

        I expected nothing, yet somehow I am still disappointed.

        “Progressing far too slow” is quite a euphemism for “converging to zero”.

    In the other hand, the Ukrainian could do the opposite. Sabotage the metering units, and thus give free gaz to Austria & co. Maybe this may make Orban consider switching side.
