Sure, that's why Germany was building NordStream-2. EU secretly just wants to buy Russian gas because it's cheap and easy.
I guarantee ~5 years after the war is over new deals will be made in place to start pumping gas from the biggest gas station in the world which is right next to EU.
It's no secret, reliable cheap source of the most important resource on the planet right now is essential for any economy today.
What do you expect us to do? Please enlighten me. Buy from ships for much higher prices because the US doesn't like Russia ?
There's a war on now and we are reducing our dependency greatly, did we get complacent, absolutely. Are we working towards getting away from it, absolutely.
Your attitude is just negative for negatives sake.
Then the war started and nordstream got blown up, so now the EU looks to other sources of LNG.
Meaning they require this from the US, so securing this is a win.
