Yes. The country I'm living gets crude oil from Russia via the дружба (druzhba = friendship) pipeline. But Ukraine has stopped the transport. Nevertheless here is no panic since the supplies are for several months.
Prices for gas have gone up insane here since Russia started the war. I was feeling guilty when heating my house, thinking I was using Russian gas, because then I fund the war. Turns out my flat gets heated by burned filth via hot water. Had no idea. That price has also gone up insane, just because of these money grabbing companies. It went from 65 a month to 250, but I only have two rooms to heat. The neighbour from upstairs paid 800 a month.Yes.

Yes a lot just stopped heating or went to minimal heating and back to the 70s. I fixed the holes myself. There was wind coming in and one hole was 2 cm. Bubble wrap on the windows. I thought: Eskimo's can keep it warm too.OMG... how can you afford to heat your home ?
Electricity and gas is already very expensive here.. and I just put the heating on ( Gas central heating).. for an hour a day.. some days not at all... to keep the price down, but even doing that my bill this month for both electric and gas was £158...pounds.. = (180 euros)... $210 USD
