(Bloomberg) -- Russia will cut off the gas to Poland and Bulgaria on Wednesday in a major escalation in the standoff between Moscow and Europe over energy supplies and the war in Ukraine.Most Read from BloombergElon Musk Lands Deal to Take Twitter Private for $44 BillionRussia Warns of Nuclear War Risk as Ukraine Talks Go OnUkraine Latest: Lavrov Warns of Nuclear War; Biden Names EnvoyRussia to Cut Gas to Poland and Bulgaria in Major EscalationU.S. Stocks Sink to 6-Week Low Before Key Earnings:
Well up until now the prices are steadily going up since more than a year, and if the gas really will stop they will skyrocket highly, since energy policy of polish government is absolute mess (like pressurizing everyone to change all other fuels into gas, in heating, cooking, cars…) and full of corruption.
People are generally alienated and inert (solidarność really did us in, that trauma still lingers, and 33 years of brainwashing did not helped either), but maybe this will move something, though most likely we will just see yet another swing towards the same socialdemocracy that betrayed working class two times already in similar situations in 1993-97 and 2001-4.
Yes, today morning. PGNiG (polish gas company) promise it won’t have any influence on amount of gas delivered in Poland since they reserves are high and new sources are being opened, but they said nothing about the prices and i doubt their bragging about sources is entirely real too since they said Europe will be short (which imply Poland will have to compete with old EU and it always ended up bad for Poland in EU).
