If you're allowed to include second order effects, I think that's obvious to many in Europe right now, energy prices exploding, driving very high inflation, making people poorer, making winter look much more threatening, and generally creating destabilization.

I don't believe you'll find many who will openly say that that's what they wanted when they said they wanted fewer investments in oil and gas.
