Except the EU can’t compete industrially or millitarily with any of those 3. The EU needs to correctly identify who to partner with for its own survival, and it’s clear that the PRC is the best option, Russia being a second choice. The US Empire is dying, and the EU imperialists are either going to fall down with it or be forced into cooperation with those it has convinced itself are existential enemies.

Russia has literally nothing of value to offer us.

Vast industrial capacity and tons of oil and natural gas, both of which the EU needs but does not have.

Only major industries Russia has are weapons (we sell those, they are a competitor) and fossil fules (we are in the process of not using them)

we are in the process of not using them

not anywhere close to fast nor soon enough to help the situation.

I disagree. Renewables have been growing exponentially for years. Its already making an impact in some countries, sadly way less in others.

Mostly due to the PRC and its incredible increase in solar and other renewables.

Instead of taking the opportunity to vastly expand renewables and make a green transition Europe is buying LNG from the US for a way higher price than Russia offered. The green transition has been watered down on European level as well
