How Europe's reliance on Russia's gas plays into the war in Ukraine
As much as 40% of Europe's natural gas supply comes from Russia, a reliance that puts U.S. allies like Germany in a jam when it comes to sanctions in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

Headline: A Justified Invasion.
Remember the Sudetenland?
Putin: We got missiles and natural gas --which would you like?
US Natural Gas Rises More Than 4%
US natural gas futures rose more than 4% to above $4.60/MMBtu, buoyed by expectations for colder weather in the coming weeks that would boost demand for the fuel. An Arctic cold pool keeps spreading outbreaks of frigid weather across North America, bringing temperatures in some regions to possibly record-breaking lows of 20 to 40 below average. Investors now await Thursday’s EIA storage report for a clear picture of the supply/demand balance. Meantime, both EU and UK gas prices surged more than 7% as fears grew that supply from Russia may be disrupted. The West is set to impose a new set of sanctions on Moscow after President Putin ordered troops into Ukraine following the recognition of two separatist republics.

KYIV/DONETSK, Feb 23 (Reuters) - Ukraine declared a state of emergency on Wednesday and told its citizens in Russia to come home, while Moscow began evacuating its Kyiv embassy in the latest ominous signs for Ukrainians who fear an all-out Russian military onslaught.
Shelling intensified at the line of contact in eastern Ukraine, where Russian President Vladimir Putin recognised the independence of two Moscow-backed rebel regions this week and has ordered the deployment of Russian troops as "peacekeepers".
