Russia Continues Selling LNG to Europe Despite Labeling EU as Enemy Waging War

Manufacturing A Global Energy Crisis
What was said
"Europe is waging a war against us. Well, if they're waging a war against you, and this is so existential, why in God's name are you selling them LNG so that they can manufacture drones so that they can hit your energy? It doesn't make any sense."
Despite the Kremlin's statements that Europe is waging existential war against Russia, Gazprom and other Russian energy companies continue selling LNG to EU nations at record levels. Alexander attributes this to corporate pressure on the Kremlin from powerful energy companies that need European revenue while redirecting infrastructure toward Asian markets. The contradiction reveals Russia's avoidance of full war mobilization in favor of maintaining economic normalcy despite the conflict.
