One should not play international politics if one does not have enough gas to heat ones home.
You think Germany freezing in winter and destroying its industrial base will save you from missile strikes? Keep in mind that Russia earns as much money as before the war from selling gas/oil to europe, because prices have shot up.
Russia now exports 80% less gas to Europe. Very different statement from exporting 80% less gas.
