Europe accuses the United States of financially exploiting the Ukrainian conflict
According to several senior European officials, the administration in Washington has exploited the conflict in Ukraine to make more money and argues that the country that has profited the most from the war in Ukraine is the United States.Winter is fast approaching, Russia has ceased supplying gas, and amid this appalling circumstance, Europe confronts massive energy supply challenges. Nonetheless, the US charges its energy-strapped European allies a premium for gas.Meanwhile, The Economist predicted that this year's energy crisis might result in the deaths of more than 100 elderly individuals throughout Europe.In this regard, EU chief diplomat Josep Borrell urged Washington to respond to European concerns. "Americans — our friends — take decisions that have an economic impact on us."This is not the first time that Americans have prospered as a consequence of wars that reverberated around the globe. During World War II, the United States stoked the conflict by providing weaponry to hostile countries, thus becoming the world's hegemonic power.
