The start of the new year has gone badly for the EU, but can anybody really maintain that this was unforeseen?
The gas supplies from Russia to Germany and by extension to the EU via the Ukraine has been turned off. It doesn't matter whom you blame for this, what matters is that this has turned off the EU's ability to maintain its (ever declining) standard of living.
Energy is the lifeblood of industry, and Germany's seemingly unstoppable post war industrialisation has suddenly - well, truly not so suddenly - ground to a deathly silence of shuttered factories and closed shops.
To say that this could not have been foreseen is risible - the war in the Ukraine (with Germany's largest supplier of low-cost energy!) was not exactly likely to turn in their favour when push came to shove. The writing has thus been on the wall since 2014, when the Ukrainian "Maidan revolution" (AKA CIA-inspired coup) took place. One can argue about the precise point in time, but that marked the beginning of the Ukrainian forces' assault on the ethnic Russian region of the DonBas - which successive versions of the Minsk Agreements (with involvement by EU/EU member states) failed to contain.
One can only conclude that Germany has been a NATO colony ever since NATO was founded, and no German politicians were capable of breaking that servitude, despite their post-war status as poster-boy for successful western manufacturing industry. They are now paying the price.
As is Japan, which post-war found itself in much the same situation as a colony of the US deep state.
As will we in the UK if we allow our politicians (AKA illegally indentured servants of the UK deep state) to continue to destroy our energy supply industries.
