Alessandro Orsini stated that Europe depended on Russia for energy supplies and described as humiliating the announcement, attributed to Donald Trump, of an agreement with Vladimir Putin for the supply of over 300,000 tons of diesel, which would lower prices. Citing the Corriere della Sera, he reported that Europe was facing winter with the lowest gas reserves in the last fifteen years and was purchasing more gas by ship from Russia than ever before. According to the data he provided, European storage was 72% full, compared to 83% a year earlier, while in Germany and the Netherlands it was below 60%. Orsini claimed that the agreement would give Putin more resources to strike Ukraine. Orsini recalled predicting that an attempt by NATO to defeat Russia on the battlefield would provoke a more intense Russian response against Ukraine and a severe economic crisis for Europe and Italy. He said that the prediction, made on February 24, 2022, had not been believed and that subsequent events had confirmed it. He also announced his participation that evening in the program *Accordi e Disaccordi* and the presentation, on October 17, at the Feltrinelli in Largo Argentina in Rome with Luca Sommi, of his book *Nato, l’espansione verso la Russia*. He described the volume as a historical reconstruction of NATO's enlargement towards Russia, from the promises to Gorbachev during the negotiations for German reunification to the war in Ukraine. The thesis of the book, he explained, connected the documentary origins of tensions between NATO and Russia to the contradiction between Article 5 and the minutes attached to the Treaty on the Final Settlement of Germany of September 12, 1990. https://t.co/2KWZ8kSEG9 #Russia #Europa #Gas (translated)
