I agree with the notion of not relying on Russian gas. We've built liquefied natural gas terminal (https://enmin.lrv.lt/en/strategic-projects/gas-sector/liquef...) 7 years ago as Russia has been using gas as a political weapon against us constantly. We will endure what we need to endure to help Ukraine and we hope that ordinary Russians will do the same.

As a person living in the Baltics, I agree with Western countries using their leverage (including big tech) to put as much pressure as possiblee on Russia. We’ve been sincerely holding back and crafting sanctions that would only affect Putin’s inner circle for the last 8 years but it didn’t work. Now that the ordinary Ukrainians need to withstand the horrors of the actual war, ordinary Russians need to withstand stronger sanctions. It’s an unfortunate reality, the west just cannot keep financially supporting the Russian war machine, directly or indirectly through taxes.
