Putin is convinced that Europeans are so obsessed with their cars that they will not quit using them, Lets prove him wrong!
One of the reasons given for the fuel price freezes and subsidies is that it can help to reduce inflation. But it is war and environmental pollution that cause the highest inflation. There is hardly anything else that would increase costs more than the sickness and death of masses of people as well as the destruction of economic assets.
In order to counteract Russia’s aggression, national governments must immediately repeal the tax reduction and subsidies concerning oil products. The European Commission must call on the respective governments to take such a measure and in case they refuse, all EU funding must be immediately suspended to them.
There are certainly legal grounds for the latter: an unjust and terrible war must not be supported with public money, and —National governments should also suspend all investments that need large quantities of oil products .must be prohibited and flight ticket tax must be introduced or raised.
As most people in Europe are not fully aware of the relation between Russia’s oil exports and its aggression against Ukraine, it is essential that national and local governments start a wide-scale campaign informing people that our addiction to oil fuels Russia’s war machine and ask them to save oil as much as they can. They should use cars only when absolutely necessary, and refrain from flying. Companies should reconsider how and when they transport goods.
