The EU bolsters Putin’s war machine by buying Russian energy, minerals, and metals, even as Russia's economy appears to falter.

The Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air (CREA) reported on April 10 that EU fossil fuel imports from Russia in 2024 totaled $24 billion, a huge boon to Putin’s war effort.This reliance must stop.
