Mercenaries from dickface putin's private army, the Wagner group, have been confirmed in Donetsk.

Their founder and leader, Dmitry Utkin, is a certified lover of the Third Reich, sporting nazi tattoos on his body.

So now it appears that dickface putin's plan to de-nazify Ukraine, relies on using actual neo nazis to do the killing for him.

Fight fire with fire, I suppose.

Germany, EU struggle in turning off Russian gas as Baltics make dramatic move (thehill.com)

Germany is addicted.  Putin paid their green parties to cause this.

Yup his plan is working well so far.

It's almost as if he knew he was going to commit genocide all along, and knew Europe would take offense to that, so he deliberately planned ways to keep them on the bench with their hands tied behind their backs.

LOL. I've noticed you're very into conspiracy theories. First Biden not "really running things" and now this. Greta Thunberg a Putin plant too, huh? 

Europe, and especially Western Europe, just flat out does not have oil and gas fields/resources. They will always be at a disadvantage when it comes to energy, and fossil fuels will always be a problem for them. And Germany is very much a left-wing, progressive country- they didn't need help from anyone for their push to "go green". The "Energiewende" had massive support from the German population.

I think quite a few folks think Biden is not fully in charge and making decisions.  It's my opinion.

As for Putin funding Green parties, that strikes me as public record, not some conspiracy notion.

Norway is in western Europe, no?  And there actually are NG resources in Germany untapped because they have restricted fracking.  They have about a ten year supply including "tight" NG of known supplies in the ground at current usage rates.  They might have more undiscovered reserves because nobody bothers to look very hard.

It's conspiracy theory to think Biden is not really in charge. He is. The policies of the US government both domestic and foreign are basically run of the mill and go hand in hand with what Biden has been about for his entire career. 

Putin funding Green parties is a far cry from him making Germany addicted to his gas or swinging any kind of energy policy in Germany. Just look at the polling. Climate change is one of the very top issues for Germans. Has been for a long time. Germany is in many ways a progressive, left-wing country. The idea that they are addicted to Russian gas because Putin may have donated to some green parties is absurd. 

Norway has restricted fracking, yes. And why? Because of earth quakes. Not because of Russia. It costs $$$$$$$ to explore and look for oil and gas fields. Energy companies aren't going to spend that money for shits and gigs. Fact of the matter is MOST of these Western European countries are democracies that are far more left/progressive and have even more environmental restrictions than we have here in the US. It's just not gonna happen. And that's not Russias fault. Those populations are lefty dopes.

In MY OPINION, Biden is not really in charge and making decisions.  The evidence for that opinion is pretty obvious.  It could be incorrect of course, and perhaps Biden is more, well, lucid than he appears to me.

Russia 'secretly working with environmentalists to oppose fracking' | Environment | The Guardian

One can find articles all over about Putin funding environmentalists in Europe.  It makes plenty of sense for him to have done that for obvious reasons.  And obviously Russian gas causes as much climate change as German or Norwegian or American gas.

Norway doesn't need fracking at this point.  And their oil producing company is government owned.

Please discuss the current president elsewhere.   Whether or not he's a figurehead who is not actually executing his own decisions and plans, really has nothing to do with Ukraine.
