One attack on gas infrastructure, and Europe is reminded once again: fossil fuels have never been just a market.
Energy Wars and Our Freedom
Oleksandr Dombrovskyi
Following the strike on QatarEnergy facilities in Ras Laffan and the halt of LNG production in Qatar, European gas prices surged. Bloomberg reported an intraday spike of up to 54%, while Reuters noted the market closed approximately 35-40% higher.
This is not just a market reaction. It is proof of how fragile the model remains where oil and gas dictate national security, economic resilience, and political decisions.
This is not just about the climate. It is about freedom.
As long as the world depends on fossil fuels, it will return, time and again, to wars over deposits, pipelines, terminals, and supply routes.
That is why we need clean, decentralized energy as the infrastructure of resilience for the state, businesses, and communities.
I will not stop repeating: renewable energy is not an “alternative.” For countries that refuse to be held hostage, it is a strategic necessity.
