The End of the Cheap Gas Era: Austria Freezes While Russia Looks East

#putin #ukraine #inflation 🔴 It happened. Gazprom has completely halted gas supplies to Austria—a country that was the oldest partner of the USSR and Russia in Western Europe. Fifty years of cooperation collapsed in a single Saturday. Europeans are in shock, but they brought this situation upon themselves. 📋 IN THIS EPISODE: • How Gazprom shut off the last gas tap to Europe • Why the Stockholm arbitration triggered a complete breakdown in relations • What lies ahead for Austria: will there be enough gas for the winter? • Where Russia is redirecting supplies: a pivot to the East • Why the energy bridges between Russia and Europe are burned forever 📊 KEY FIGURES: • 50 years — the length of the partnership between the USSR/Russia and Austria • 80% — Austria’s dependence on Russian gas before the rupture • €230 million — the fine imposed on Gazprom by the Stockholm arbitration • 93% — Austria’s gas storage fill level (but will it last through winter?) • $2.5 billion per year — Russia’s losses from the break with Austria 🎯 WHY THIS MATTERS: The termination of gas contracts with Austria is not just a commercial dispute. It is a symbol of the collapse of Europe’s entire energy security architecture, which had been built over decades. When Vienna chose to support sanctions against Russia and refused to pay under the agreed terms, Moscow made it clear: the era of charity is over. Behind this is a global transformation of the energy market. Russia no longer depends on European buyers—it is turning eastward, toward China, India, and the countries of Asia. The Power of Siberia pipeline is already operating at full capacity, and new routes are under construction. For Europe, this marks the end of the era of cheap energy. Austria will have to purchase expensive liquefied natural gas, competing with Asian countries for supply. Industry will face rising costs, and many plants may shut down or relocate. The coming winter will be a test for the entire European Union—and not all countries may pass it. 📌 #gazprom #austria #europe #energy #sanctions #gas #russia #geopolitics #ukraine #usa #economy #china #news #analysis #putin #europeanunion #energycrisis #lng #inflation #industry 🔔 Subscribe to the channel to understand what is happening in the world.
