That is the level of their ignorance. A local government in Lagos is more populated than Lithuania. Lagos has 15m people, Lithuania has 2.5m people. So their gas consumption is very insignificant, they can afford to buy one shipment that will last their generation ages. When big economies like are talking, a local government will still be talking.


I love reading comments from smart people like you.

Many European leaders did not expect Russia to invade Ukraine directly.

Sorry u didn't get the question. is it just this year that European leaders realised that all of a sudden they need to find alternative to Russian gas?

Lithuania is an irrelevant European country which is heavily dependant on , their total population isn't up to 1/5th of Lagos, same.with their GDP, they don't even have much exports and will incur more cost buying oil from US or middle east based on landing cost., Its a stupid irrelevant decision by a president who wants to be woke. We have many kids becoming presidents in Europe, they rode on the back of younger generation demand of snowflakes this is why many European countries aren't able to stand up to speak for themselves thats why we have more puppets like Zelensky , who would rather dance to the tune of the west than stand for what's right for their people.
How can you be a president and your country is under siege, your people refugees, your land desolate ,investments and all country activities halted and your people dying, just because you wish to please the west.

Gas not Crude.

Didn't Russia notice they were small when they decided to be selling to them and taking their money?

Now that they have dumped Russian gas you are now calling them insignificant. Tell that to Russia who didn't think so when they decided to sell to them. Abi na dash Russia dey dash them gas?

Nobody "blows" from selling gas

Those who blow are those who use gas, who know how to use it to create jobs and power their economies

There is a direct relationship between how much energy a nation USES and how wealthy it is not how much energy it SELLS
We need to use more gas and if necessary import more

Lithuania is not buying through third party. They have replaced russian Gas with LNG. Simple as that

LNG? What's the difference between Russian gas and lng? Who owns the LNG they have replaced Russian gas with?

Incidentally and others will disconnect. This is inevitable.

The glaring point here is that Europe has been shown the way it is done.

Since they all have the desire to disconnect from Russia this just makes the whole process not only easier but more practicable

Lithuania is a midget. I doubt the population is up to 2m. It is far easier for them to cut off all Russian gas imports. For a country like , this will take some time.

Note: I am not a er of the invasion.

Russia will loose customers
Customers like China and India will take advantages of cheap oil from Russia and may even sell to other country. Third party trading.
Iran will start to make more oil money. More weapons for Iran. Israel should wake up, bombs are coming from Iran.
Other oil producing countries will also increase oil production. Nigeria should wake up.
European customers might have to endure for a while. European leaders will look for alternatives as soon as possible.

The population isn't significant here, they glory is that they have break away and are now independent.
This your question is irrelevant.
Just like asking for the population on Ghana because they are enjoying uninterrupted power supplies after breaking away from Nigeria. There population doesn't matter what matters is that Ghana is enjoying self sufficient power supply

Think before you talk please. What is the volume of Gas Lithuania consumes or purchases from Russia? She consumes barely 30,000 cubic every year (85 per day) so LNG can serve her needs. Her consumption is 0.1% of global consumption so it's negligible. She can also afford to pay higher in the short term. Let Poland, and Co do the same then I will pay attention. I hope you know the German Chancellor announced today that they will continue buying Russian Gas but will only pay in Euro,? Let that consumes 8.6 billion cubic DAILY pull out first then we know it's serious. Lithuania? I laugh

Trump Warned Europe especially about relying on Russia's gas, but they laughed at him and called him names. Now the joke is on Europe, I hope they wise up this time.

Am not a fan of Trump but I very well when he shouting back then that Europe especially should reduce their dependence on Russian gas because Putin might use it as a weapon in future but Angela Merkel took the advice like a pinch of salt.

Trump also queried NATO countries for reducing their defense spending allowing only the U.S to be funding bulk of the organization.

Nuclear power plants produces cheaper electricity than Gas but has closed many Nuclear power plants because of Gas from Russia.

As we speak, deals are being made in the background between major gas suppliers and Europe. Don’t be surprised that over the next few months, before the next winter, most countries in Europe would have come off Russian gas.
