Quick Glance: Biden Warns Russia Against Using Nuclear Weapons as a "Dirty Bomb" Fly
  • As they negotiate economic woes and simmering unrest at home, some European politicians have been pushed on the defense about their support for Ukraine in the war.

  • Fundamentally, it all stems from Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the European Union's choice to defend Ukraine while breaking ties with Russia - specifically, weaning itself off Russian energy supplies such as natural gas.

  • These exorbitant energy prices are being passed on to consumers, causing unprecedented inflation across the European Union.

  • Companies selling natural gas flooded the European market as a result of high prices.
