Transcript from the speech below...

And after my interpretation of it
(correct me if I got it wrong).

***********************
" Dear colleagues, dear citizens.

It is an incredible lie and hypocrisy that sanctions against Russia and a ban on imports of Russian oil and gas are, in fact, sanctions against Russia and a ban on financing the war.

The sanctions are indeed directed against half a billion citizens of the EU and against millions of citizens of the rest of Europe.

If this were true, if we really wanted to prevent the financing of the war, we would immediately impose the same sanctions on:
- Saudia Arabia which has been waging war in Yemen for several years.
- We would not import oil and gas from the US, which has been involved in more war conflicts than any other country in Europe and the world in recent decades.

The only ones who will suffer are the citizens of the European Union.
Let's stop making these crazy decisions, thank you. "

MY COMMENT:
*****************
So as for a rewording and my interpretation...

EU sanctions are not against Russia but against the EU citizens (their own population) as they are bumping up their prices (because of the sanction they brought about). A kind of good excuse to make the supply come from elsewhere and charge higher "because of the war".

Longer...

They add sanctions to oil and gas when $audia Arabia and U$A are biggest instigators of war... which is why lie and hypocrisy is being mentioned.
