President Putin of Russia pointed out the consequences facing the European Union.
Russian State News Agency, July 17 - President Putin of Russia pointed out that Europe's abandonment of Russian natural gas has brought a series of negative consequences for European industries, including the glass manufacturing industry.
Although the EU is a highly developed economy, it lacks resources itself and relies heavily on external energy supplies. Abandoning cheap Russian natural gas has increased the production costs of EU industrial enterprises. Industries such as the glass manufacturing industry and fertilizers will lose competitiveness, which will in turn affect the entire economic development of the EU. The EU and Russia originally had complementary advantages and could help each other develop, but European countries clearly lack political vision, pushing Russia into the Ukraine conflict, which has seriously affected their own interests.
