The winter of 2022 may be especially bitter for Europeans, as having followed the US in sanctioning Russia, they have lost the latter's natural gas supply.
The damage to the Nord Stream pipelines has made the prospects worse. How will Europeans stay warm this winter?
It was a grave mistake for Europe to follow the US lead, it has resulted in it losing the flexibility of an independent policy.
Instead of helping Europe, the US has been profiteering from Europe's misery by selling it gas at exorbitant prices.
With such an ally who needs a friend?
Winter is nearing and Europeans will be feeling the chill. They should look their own interests, not those of the US.
