Russia used energy as an economic weapon against Ukraine in 2007. But it seems that it has now fully played the gas and oil cards, and Russia is losing the energy war. Has Vladimir Putin’s winter gas attack backfired, as Moscow has been frozen out of lucrative European energy markets? Or will the terroristic threats against nuclear facilities re-emerge if Russia starts to lose badly on the battlefield?
