There is no substitute for bankruptcyWhether it be in business, marriage, or politics sometimes it has to be recognised that bankruptcy is the unavoidable answer. Europe no longer wants fuel from Russia, but wants to do so without pain. Like defaulting on a car payments but still wanting to drive it. Forget the moral justification for defaulting, there are consequences for doing so. And when you lose your car it is not reasonable to suggest that your neighbour should supply your transportion needs. Take the bus! In this case, use less fuel or get an alternative supplier, and you can't do that by holding a gun to the head of the potential supplier.
