It is all about trade routes. Russia and China are working on the BRI- initiative (Belt and Road Initiative), the new silk road2.0. Where they want to connect trade pathways to Africa, India, The Middle East and Europe, The US doesn't want this because, they lose revenue and don't want Europe, Russia and China to become partners. That's why they blew up Nordstream in the first place. That's why they overthrew Yanukovich and installed their puppets. Europe now had to pay more for its imported energy from the US. That's what it's all about.

You are so right ! This depedancy on Russia Gas grew out of a German belief (Including Merkel) that a Russia bound in trade would have too much to risk in conflict with Europe, making Germany more secure while also profiting its economy. Putin made the best ever chess move to convince them - the vest one was when he hired Schröder untill he finally exposed how strong and confident he feels and made one mistake - tried to check mate Europe and invaded Ukraine. This SUDDEN and ABSOLUTELY UNEXPECTED MOVE by Putin lead German Politicians to WAKE UP FROM THEIR SLEEP - reconsidering their ties and trust with Russia DESPITE YEARS OF WARNING FROM THE US AND THE MAJORITY TO EU COUNTRIES AND ALLIES. Mr. Schröder has today become the most prominent face of that long era of miscalculation, not only because he expresses no regret but because he has also profited handsomely from it, earning millions promoting Russian energy interests.

Sentiments aside, your insinuation is incredibly incorrect. Norway’s geologically proven and unexplored reserves are a fraction of Russia’s and they do not have the infrastructure in place to supply most of Europe in the volume that would be sufficient to see to their needs on the continent. Furthermore, environmental movements in the country are quite influential and represent a strong impediment to any proposals to expand Norway’s infrastructure and capacity to produce and export more gas. Now even with the capacity they have at the moment, the strict environmental laws and additional provisions for contract stipulations and other provisions for cross border trade add more to the cost of Norwegian gas. In essence, Russian gas is still by far the cheapest and best alternative and this is why Angela Merkel threw her country into deepening the energy relationship with Russia further than her predecessor.

"Collective denial of reality". These words exactly describe Schroeder/Merkel's (and their accomplices') policy of helping Gazprom in its "special gas operation".

In January 2022 the European Commission endorsed fossil gas as a “transition” fuel. The decision had been fiercely fought over by EU member states. Germany and much of Central and Eastern Europe had supported gas’s inclusion while nations like Denmark, Sweden, Netherlands, Luxembourg and Austria had opposed it.

Don't forget Belt and Road a direct copy of the worst aspects of corporate imperialism

DW is right, they’re the best analytical channel in the world now.

follow the money…

You missed out that it was Polish administration PiS which almost single-handedly opposed Russian influence and fuel dependence. Sikorsky and the Tusk Government did the opposite in 2007-2014. They removed Poland's veto on Russian involvement in European and world institutions, and supported the German fuel dependence, and the invasions of Georgia and Ukraine. Despite the fact that Putin's economic blacklisting of Poland wasn't removed. Tusk/Sikorsky seem very skillful at rewriting history, both whitewashing their instrumental part in this, and blackening the PiS a conservative centre-left government they branded as "right wing nationalist". See the documentary series "Reset".

Seeing Mark Rutte in the end of this video, knowing he's the future NATO general secretary, proves that we will never learn any lesson from this...we're up for a sequel to this documentary.

If Europe wanted to be energy independent , it could, but this would not bode well, with almost any fossil fuel owner in the world Plus... It has its own fossil fuel deposits. It has the know-how for nuclear energy and about any form of renewable energy . That said, the "dependency" worry is without merit, in the fact that you change your depndencies from Russia to Middle East. You still maintain a dependency , the question is to whom. People prefer to keep a depndency to the Middle East, as it is deemed more controllable. I am not convinced. The excuses are posted frontline , the real reasons are held behind. And the real reason is financial dominance. Not sure this is a sustainable policy .

Peace and security never existed on this planet, important lesson to learn.

This was really really good. Another take and angle of what has happened. I wish it kept going to the change of the energy sector in Europe. How they did it so quickly. How it has affected Europe Germany and Russia. From industry to households and Industry. Well done

“In any system of energy, Control is what consumes energy the most. No energy store holds enough energy to extract an amount of energy equal to the total energy it stores. No system of energy can deliver sum useful energy in excess of the total energy put into constructing it. This universal truth applies to all systems. Energy, like time, flows from past to future” (2017).

Maybe if we use open fuel tanks, no fuel lines to control it, and just let the fuel fumes make it's own way into the intake, that would reduce control of the energy and because controlling with tanks, pumps and fuel lines consumes most of the energy in a car's enery system, refucing control would make these freed fume powered engines more efficient than conventional controlled engines

This was a very well made documentary but adding commentators that represent the US political establishment, considering how prejudiced they may be, should have been counterbalanced with interviews from Russian officials. The U.S has for the past century used energy as a weapon as well in pursuing its own political and global agenda, the most popular example of this is the petrodollars and the sanctions mechanism; this fact alone is the reason why a balance would have really helped to give viewers a more balanced perspective. The truth is that Russian gas was a realistic and easy alternative for the Germans. Norway lacks the infrastructure and their gas reserves are but a fraction of Russia’s which represents an eventual limitation to supply; in addition, the environmentalists are quite influential in those Scandinavian countries, especially Norway, which represents an impediment to any moves to increase exploration and raise capacity. Trying to simplify Germany’s dependence on Russia by calling out the greed of politicians seems childish because the E.U. has already shown time and time again that it is governed by greed, one of the most popular of such a case would have to be the former vice president of the E.U. parliament Eva Kaili. Greed is a common trait of being a politician, it is what fuels their ambitions and helps them fund their campaigns. However, with Russian gas, I wouldn’t be too quick to blame the German political establishment for being incompetent. It is not a weakness to seek deep economic ties with your neighbor as a deterrent to future hostilities.

You can use it as ventilation pipe also if you go with different living and global warming

The former prime minister of Sweden, Carl Bildt, became a board member of Gazprom during this "charm offensive", accepting seven figure Euro kick-backs, claiming he actually couldn't say no to them (sic.) even when it was demanded of him as he accepted the role of Sweden's foreign minister. Carl Bildt is still asked to be a pundit in our news outlets, also in regards to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Of course he knew he was selling out our national security, but it's as if Russian propaganda is actually working still, even after all that we know today. We might look at Trump and his followers and be horrified at how "fact resistant" they are, but I really think we'd better take a really good look at our own parallel political degradation here in Europe.

Now do Shell, BP, Exxon, Citgo, etc… Hypocrites.

The consequences of EU eyes closer to Gazprom and Putin bribing European politicians has ended with brutal war in Ukraine, brutal dominance of authoritarian regime in Russia. “Real politic -Ost politic of Germany” has collapsed 😢, consequently Russia became aggressive and militarised regime, which threatens world with nuclear weapons and that is done with a help of Germans money 😢😢😢

Russia did not become aggressive. Russia has always been like that. Germans simply did not want to see it and did not want to hear its eastern neighbours and their warnings.

Shame on Germany and thank you DW

nothing new under the sun.. the same story over and over again for 2000 years. Humans will never change.

While Russia has a lot of Fossil Fuels, you need to remember that these fuels are in spread out and isolated locations. This makes it very expensive to extract and produce. With sanctions and competition, Russia will not be able to make revenues based on the extraction of these resources, at least not nearly the extent they were pre 2022.

Amazing documentary but I believe the title should say GERMANY and not the collective West, especially since SO MANY western politicians tried to warn Germany and tried to persuade Germany another route.

Self introspection is good for the west. Helps to change its ways for the betterment of humanity.

Schruder is so guilty. What a creep. Of course, all of the Russia Gazprom but darn it, Scholz was such a corrupt player. Merkel was insanely naive too.

It seems that Germany would be well served to diversify its energy resources as much as possible. Especially in light of US LNG pauses due to environmental concerns. There is a minority view that both Germany and Japan were trying to secure energy resources in the 1940's, Azerbaijan in the case of Germany; and SE Asia in the case of Japan.

Thanks for this good summary. In these times it is important to summarize the years of what went wrong with Russia. As a German, I am angry at ex-Chancellor Gerhard Schröder, whom I myself voted for back then. He and Putin, who had a great friendship between men, greatly promoted each other's careers. There was also a small scandal in Germany when Schröder suddenly accepted a highly paid job at Gazprom after his term in office. Nobody was informed about this in advance, not even his party. He was Putin's plaything. Putin is trying to play states off against each other. Just like he did with Zelensky back then, DE should turn to him. A few days ago in the interview with the American Tucker Carlson the same thing happened. He offered the Americans to extradite an American journalist who is imprisoned as an agent in Russia. In return he demands the exchange of his "patriot" from Germany, who is condemned as a Tiergarten murderer by us. He wants to show that DE is the vasall of the Americans. So he wants a deal between a supposed agent and a murderer. This shows who Putin is. He is and remains an old KGB man and plays his old games. The game is over!

Contrary to popular belief, Iran has the largest gas resources and reserves in the world. But the ruling totalitarian regime is actually a servant of Russia and cannot take any serious action in the international arena without Putin's permission. Recently, large gas reserves have been found in the Caspian Sea and the northern coast of Iran, but Russia and the Iranian regime do not allow exploitation. If the recent uprisings of Iranian people against the regime of the Islamic Republic were well supported by the western governments and this hellish regime would be overthrown, Europe would never depend on Russia due to the need for gas, and the future free Iran could easily supply Europe with gas. .
