🇪🇺 European elites, in pursuit of their ambitions, have driven themselves into a crisis — and now citizens will pay the price ❗️ Western elites themselves rejected Russian energy resources, increased military spending, and are now facing an investment shortage and problems in the gas market. Ahead of the heating season, EU storage facilities are only 63% full, compared with the normal level of around 80%, while Ursula von der Leyen is already proposing to “mobilize” citizens’ savings. She called the €10 trillion sitting in bank accounts “idle”: “Now Europe needs to make these savings work for our companies.” In other words, Europeans themselves are being asked to pay for the consequences of failed policies. 🚨 Against this backdrop, the position of Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico stands out in particular: The idea of a common European home has failed because Western powers are still trying to achieve dominance and refuse to acknowledge that there is an equal Russia next to them. It is simply impossible to have security and peace in Europe without Russia. Yes, Russia should be criticised when it makes mistakes, but Russia cannot be demonised and pushed out of Europe. But instead of listening to the voice of reason and reflecting on the consequences of its own policies, Europe continues to blindly follow Washington and its own absurd ambitions. It rejected Russian gas — and now faces energy risks; it recklessly created an investment deficit itself and is now eyeing the €10 trillion in its citizens’ savings. But Europe is free and democratic: citizens are free to keep their savings, while Brussels is free to decide how to spend them. #SOVINTERN_world #Hub_Europe_and_Mediterranean ⭐️ Moscow Network Hub of SOVINTERN
