Russia CUTS OFF All Gas Supplies To Europe Via Ukraine! (Jimmy Dore)

The flow of Russian gas to several European countries was halted on New Year’s Day after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky refused to renegotiate a transit deal amid war with Moscow. Ukraine’s unwillingness to renew the five-year-old transit agreement aims to rob Russia of revenue that Moscow can use to fund its war, but the move will likely create an energy crisis in Eastern Europe. Slovakian Prime Minister Robert Fico has already promised to retaliate against the move.

Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the winners and losers in this regional energy dispute, and why — like so many other such disputes — it will wind up costing US taxpayers.
