Ukraine in desperate need

Germany is in a far more vulnerable position than the USA over Russian gas supplies. If supply is stopped that has massive long-term repercussions for the European economy and it is simplistic to say just turn the gas off.

The question of the USA supplying Europe with fossil fuels is a moot point since it cannot even meet its own colossal demand at the moment.

There was a well-thought out piece posted hours ago from InsideSources as to what Biden could do:
He could lift restrictions on U.S. production to increase supply, lower prices and continue exporting liquified natural gas. While exports rose nearly 16 percent in March to a record high, with shipments to Europe leading the way, we can do better.
Europe got hooked on Russian gas despite Reagan’s warnings. It now depends on Russia for about 40 percent of its LNG imports, thanks to a 3,500-mile gas pipeline from Siberia to Germany that Reagan unsuccessfully tried to block.
We can’t help Europe reduce its dependence on Russian gas without a Reagan-like strategy. We need to shorten permit review timelines, streamline (not eliminate) debate over site selection and environmental impacts, and stop the weaponization of frivolous lawsuits.
