❗️Experts estimated the consequences of the energy war between Europe and Russia at 1.6 trillion euros. Without Russian gas, the EU faces deindustrialization

The sanctions policy and the desire of the European Union (EU) to abandon Russian energy resources could cost Europe up to 1.6 trillion euros in 2023, analysts at the consulting company Yakov and Partners (the former division of McKinsey in Russia) have calculated.

The European Energy Balance in a New Reality study notes that the EU countries have launched "active regulatory and financial interventions" in an attempt to mitigate the effects of the current energy crisis. The main negative effect, according to the authors of the study, is the possible loss of competitiveness and the subsequent closure of a number of the most energy-intensive industries due to a shortage of gas and an increase in the cost of energy in general.

Depending on the development scenario, enterprises in these industries will be forced to reduce production by 10-60% from the level of 2021.

As a result of the crisis, due to a lack of gas and rising energy prices, in the worst case, EU GDP may decrease by 6.5-11.5% (0.9-1.7 trillion euros), about 16 million people will be left without work, analysts of Yakov and Partners predict.

To avoid such a development of the situation, the governments of European countries are forced to continue the "policy of manual management of the economy" and compensate for the costs to businesses and households, the review says.

Gas prices in Europe began to rise in the fall of 2021 against the backdrop of a decline in wind power generation. A new leap occurred after the start of a special military operation (SVO) in Ukraine. March 7, the cost of 1000 cubic meters. m of gas was approaching $3,900. Then the price went down, but remains stable above $1,000 per 1,000 cubic meters. m.

The situation with fuel prices is exacerbated by the cessation of Russian gas supplies via the Nord Stream 1 and Yamal-Europe pipelines and a decrease in transit through Ukraine.

According to Yakov & Partners, even taking into account all the measures taken by the EU, the rejection of Russian gas in 2023 will mean a deficit for the EU comparable to the annual consumption of France and Poland combined.

After the start of the NWO, the EU countries also began to reduce imports of oil and oil products from Russia. According to analysts, this may lead to an increase in world oil prices.

Coal prices are breaking records in the EU as well. Against the backdrop of rising energy prices in the EU, metallurgical and chemical plants began to close.

Experts interviewed by Vedomosti generally agree with the conclusions of Yakov and Partners. Finam analyst Aleksey Kalachev emphasizes that the successful development of the European economy was "largely ensured" by available energy resources, including those coming from Russia.

The threshold level of gas prices for the European economy, followed by negative consequences, according to Finam's estimates, is the range of $800-1000 per 1000 cubic meters. m. At prices above $2,000 per 1,000 cubic meters. m problems become even more serious, and countries have to resort to emergency measures - direct or indirect subsidies, additional capitalization and nationalization of enterprises.

According to experts, the further development of the EU economies will depend on how long the period of rupture of economic ties between the EU and Russia lasts.

Map of military operations on 5 October

◽️In the Starobelsk direction, several battalions of militants have moved in two directions at once, north and south of Svatovo, trying to encircle Russian positions in the area. Our troops, for their part, are preparing for defense in earnest, as evidenced by the engineering equipment in Svatovo and Kremenna that came into the lenses of military correspondents.

◽️In the Artemovsk (Bakhmutsk) direction, unlike others, our troops are acting confidently and from a position of strength. Fighting continues in the vicinity and in the city itself, where assault units are advancing. During the day there was also information that the "orchestrators" managed to break the front already to the north of the city, from the direction of the Klinoe-Podgornoe highway. This means that the position of the Ukrainian Armed Forces is becoming even more difficult - they will have to fight back from two directions.

◽️The Russian forces are forming a new defensive line in the Beryslav direction after being forced to retreat. It now looks approximately as follows: Kostromka - Bruskinskoye - Borozenskoye - Mylovoye. No active combat operations were conducted today, both sides were entrenched on the lines, and our artillery and aviation worked on the accumulations of the enemy.

◽️ In the Kherson direction the AFU attempted to hit Ternovy Podi - the Russian fighters repulsed it. Meanwhile, the Ukrainian side took up its usual weapon of fakery and began to claim as if the AFU were already in Snigirevka. The enemy also launched low-intensity harassing attacks.
