Activists protest against the energy business from Russia
Participants of the action opposed the energy business , which continues to work with Russia. They turned to business with the question: “Money or life?”
Stop Bloody Energy activists stressed that Russia has unleashed the most brutal and bloody war of the 21st century, and has been destroying Ukraine for three months. Despite this, Russia continues to receive funding to continue the bloody war.
Since February 24, this country has received more than 63 billion euros for the sale of its energy resources alone. Every cent of this amount is used by the Russians to kill innocent Ukrainians. This amount can be used to purchase about 8,400 Kalibr cruise missiles, protest activists said in a statement.
They call on international business and energy companies to stop working in Russia and stop financing terror.
At the economic forum in Davos, activists staged a rally “Time to choose your path.” It was on it that activists turned to business with a more important question: “Money or the lives of innocent people?”.

Also, as part of the protest, a performance by Ukrainian artist Darya Koltsova “Koliskova” was held.
It is designed to materialize the statistics of real losses of children during the three months of the war in order to “sing” the last lullaby and let go of the life of every Ukrainian child that Russia has taken away.

Performance visited Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Dmitry Kuleba.
We are convinced that the only way to stop Russian aggression is to rid the Kremlin of the sources of funding it so badly needs to keep killing Ukrainians… Business must leave Russia now, starting with the energy sector,” Kuleba said.
He added that Russia does not have its own technical capabilities for the extraction and transportation of oil, gas and coal. Therefore, it needs cooperation with the energy sector.

Russia's energy revenue 2022
According to economists, in 2022, Russia's export earnings from the sale of energy products could amount to $321 billion. This is about 5 military annual budgets of Russia. The Kremlin can convert these funds into such a quantity of weapons that it will be possible to destroy the whole of Europe.
The organizers emphasize that if energy cooperation is stopped, Russia will lose its main source of income, which means it will not be able to continue the war. The war will be stopped by sanctions, an economic boycott, and the delivery of lethal weapons to Ukraine to fight the aggressor country.
