I wasn't talking about EU vs Russia as a military force.
First of all the EU countries are significant customers of Russia, Russia's economy prospers from the EU, cut that then Russia's economy goes for a ball of chalk.
Then, within the EU, we have some of the world's healthiest nations such as France, Germany, UK, Denmark, Sweden, Austria, Luxembourg aswell as a munber of Russia's immediate neighbouring countries.
USA might be the world's No. 1 player but for making life difficult for Russia ..... well it's in a relatively remote location!
Agreed,,, this fight between Ukraine and Russia, affects the EU much more than the US,,, But.
Norway and even the US might try to make up the difference for Russian gas,,,, Natural gas and LP spiked in the Midwest this last winter,,,, trying to take up the slack will be a burden for American’s next winter, especially if we have another winter like the last one,,,, which hasn’t ended here yet! -10C right now!
I’d rather have cool over hot,,, but sooner or later we need warm weather for a growing season. I pre-paid for my seed last fall and ordered long day roundup ready corn,,, 70+ USD per acre for the seed alone. I might need to reorder for short day corn.
