thats the thing I do not get. before the hohol coup of 2013-12 and the start of sanctions to "remove dependency from russian resources" they got the Russian resources extremely cheaply, way cheaper than they actually should have and Russia didnt have any motivation to stop being a resource colony.
Was it greed and they wanted to gamble that Russia will collapse by 2016 so they will get everything for free?
Or was unreasonably cheap not cheap enough to sustain the enlightened european blooming garden lifestyle without being subsidized with money they got from plundering the collapsed soviet union countries for 13 years?
