    Oh, the middle east situation already impacts gas prizes here (EU). With the Russian gas dropped from the market and dependance on LNG import, the closure of even 1 source (at the Israelian cost) is enough to drive the prizes up. (Hopefully temporarely)

    However, Russians invasion in Ukraine is on the same continent, which poses a way bigger problem for NATO and EU. The middle east problems ‘just’ impact fossil fuel prizes, Russia is a direct issue for our safety.
