The EU is spineless and full of hypocrites. Seeing their silence and complicity regarding the ongoing genocide in Gaza it's no surprise they're also funding Russia's through buying oil by proxy.

Gaza is faaaaaar more indicting than Ukraine. They can't replace Russian oil, and the alternative to buying it, as we were shown last year, is letting people freeze.
Wait until you discover the US has been buying Russian oil and Russian uranium in spit of their own sanctions

EU spineless? come on

I always find it hilarious that the US commands its allies to apply sanctions which hurt themselves economically to Russia, while US continues to disregard its own sanctions and continues to buy from Russia the commodities the US wants.

That's the result of the Wolfowitz Doctrine that applies to keep US allies as well as US adversaries down, so the US remains 'top dog'.
