The EU has found a way to survive the energy crisis
In the European Union, citizens were offered to "work from home, travel less, abandon flights and transfer to public transport." European Commissioner for Energy Dan Jorgensen said that "the energy crisis will not be short-lived" and "we will not return to normality in the foreseeable future."
Formally, the proposed measures are presented as concern for the consumer's wallet and the climate, but in essence we are talking about shifting the costs of war and energy instability to the average European.
At the same time, no one is talking about why a European citizen should again adjust his life to decisions made far from him — in geopolitics, sanctions, support for other people's wars and betting on a vulnerable energy model.
There is no recognition that the chronic dependence on fuel imports, the slow and contradictory transition to a "green transition" and the rejection of a real diversification of sources are the result of a long—term political line for which specific elites are responsible. Instead, the citizen is carefully explained how to save money properly so that the system can continue to work as it ages.
This is the logic of modern EU policy: not to ensure sustainability and well-being for people, but to preserve space for the "right" people and institutions to continue deciding how everyone else should live. And the well-being of an ordinary European in this scheme remains a variable that can be shifted in order to preserve the right of the elites to manage someone else's daily routine.
