Right, which is why the EU isn't going to stop buying their energy, but if you're a Ukranian... why do you care? Why not just say damn the torpedoes? You can hurt Russia in a way they'll feel by cutting off part of their economic engine - if it hurts Germany at the same time, well, sorry, we're fighting for our country over here, we're not terribly worried about you.
