  1. That was clear long ago. 12 years ago, in 2010, Vladimir Putin (at that time the Prime Minister of Russia), speaking on energy issues at the annual economic forum in Berlin, addressing European business community said: I don't understand, how are you going to heat? You don’t want gas, you don’t develop nuclear energy, but what are you going to do - firewood, or what? - Putin asked the Germans business people sitting in the hall. - Well, for firewood - you also need to go to Siberia. The audience laughed loudly, believing that Putin was joking. 12 years have passed, and everything that was predicted then in Berlin came true exactly.

  2. This is what newspapers wrote 12 years ago.  Putin suggests Germans replace nuclear with firewood Berlin, 01 December 2010 Russian prime minister Vladimir Putin has told German businessmen that they may have to rely on Russian firewood for heating if they do not want to construct new nuclear power plants or bring in Russian gas supplies. At a business conference organized in Berlin by the German newspaper Sueddeutsche Zeitung, Putin recognised that "the German public does not like the nuclear power industry for some reason." He continued: "But I cannot understand what fuel you will take for heating. You do not want gas, you do not develop the nuclear power industry, so you will heat with firewood?" Putin then noted, "You will have to go to Siberia to buy the firewood there," as Europeans "do not even have firewood."

  3.  @runeulv1812  The same with Russia. Since 2020 Brussel did not allowed to sign new long term contractы on gas supply. Only spot trade!
