You hear about Germany's problems due to lack of oil and natural gas from Russia, but I wonder how the former Eastern Blok countries who are now in NATO are coping?
Bulgaria, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Romania, Slovakia and Slovenia.
I didn't look into every one of them, but Romania has been getting 29% of its natural gas from Russia and a quarter of its oil.
Romania can probably cope with the shortages more than a highly industrialized country like Germany. But they're going to feel a pretty good pinch, also.
Or maybe all of those former Eastern Blok countries will just start to ignore the America sanctions on Russia. Maybe they never participated in them in the first place.
