So all sounds good. Hoping the reconnection goes smoothly.

Good for them. I wouldn't ever want to be dependent on Russia either.

Good for them. We don't need more dependencies on the scofflaw state.

Good to hear that. I know I wouldn't want to have any dealings with a country where its president is constantly trying to stamp out free speech by arresting protesters, illegally taking out companies and organizations that don't agree with his doctrine or beliefs, attack the press and threaten to fire or kill them when they print anything against him, and threaten to use the military to do his bidding.

Were they 'spooked' by 'Russia' or by America?

Because it is America that has forced state after state to cut themselves off from Russia's abundant energy and deal with shortages and higher prices and end up extremely vulnerable to people like Trump and Biden's support for genocide and the attempts to make Ukraine another Apartheid regime to keep the Scofflaw one company

It's understandable why the Baltic countries want to cut all ties with the former Soviet Union.

Kaja Kallas once infamously alleged the Soviets were the bane of all evil and communism ruined her life, she was a victim etc.

Hope they left a hidden "present" inside the Russian grid that will keep them wondering who did it in a few weeks, as power is interrupted. These connections aren't just 1-way.

America has no power to force Europe to do anything. It isn't like they will invade and start a war after denying they will for 3 months before hand. Oh ... which country did that in 2022?

It's absolutely mind-blowing that these 3 small states have so much influence on EU policy. You do you Western Europe.
