Russia has not stopped exporting gas to the EU even with all the boycotts placed on them . They have also made every payment on their bonds.. So that means they are not using gas and oil as a weapon against the EU. the States is just trying to get the EU to buy gas from America at way more price than they pay Russia. If anyone is guilty of anything it is the US using the world reserve currency and got Russia kicked off the SWIFT system, seizing there foreign reserves (which should scare every country in the world). and now that Victoria Newland has admitted the US had biolabs in the Ukraine working on bio weapons maybe it is time for the world to hold the US accountable. But things are quickly changing for the corrupt USA. Saudi is now talking with China about selling oil in other than USD. India is buying oil from Russia in other than USD. The day of the petro dollar ie ending thus they will lose the world reserve status and then the chickens will come home to roost for the American public. If you think inflation is bad now wait until all those not needed USD come back to American shores. But what do i know because i do not get my news from the likes of CNN, MSNBS ETC
