EGF Affiliated Expert Nika Chitadze, Director of the Center for International Studies in Tbilisi (Georgia) recently published an opinion over how energy factors into the current stand-off between Russia and the West over Ukraine. He concluded that: “As a result of the export of energy resources, Russia manages to attract the financial resources that it uses for further military purposes. […] Western sanctions against Kremlin's policy should be primarily aimed at finding alternative ways to reduce global oil and gas prices, as well as the imports of natural gas from Russia. version.
