The Irish state plans to re-enforce strict COVID-style lockdown rules if the Ukraine crisis causes severe fuel shortages.
Ireland’s Europhile government plans to return to brutal COVID-style quarantines in the event of fuel shortages due to the ongoing crisis in Ukraine, according to a leak published on Monday.
This is because the ongoing struggle between Russia and the West over Vladimir Putin’s continued invasion of Ukraine has put enormous pressure on fossil fuel resources around the world, and sometimes protesters have contributed to the climate by blocking essential oil infrastructure, increasing local shortages in Europe.
According to the published publications independent IrishAuthorities have introduced mandatory home work for non-essential workers, “non-essential” travel restrictions, and strict speed limits on highways in the event of diesel fuel cuts, described as confidential information. “High-level planning work”.
At the meeting, held behind closed doors, it was reported that the event delegates were asked to plan three different fuel shortage scenarios of varying severity and discussed fuel rationing and limiting when certain vehicles can be refueled at gas stations.
The head of one of the organizations present at the meeting said it was “cautious” to plan for a possible future fuel shortage, although the likelihood of a major fuel shortage is low due to ongoing international tensions in Ukraine. ”
“While it is unlikely that we will see a reduction in fuel stocks, we are cautious and the government is getting involved in contingency planning,” said Kevin McPartlan, CEO of Fuels for Ireland. . “healthy” today.

McPartlan’s specific statement on future fuel deliveries to Ireland seems optimistic given the energy security challenges some European countries are currently facing.
Countries like Germany, which completely ignored previous warnings by Donald Trump and others to reduce reliance on energy exports from Moscow, are currently in trouble because they rely on Russia’s gas, and financial apocalypse is imminent for such states if Vladimir Putin decides to pull the plug.
And it cut across countries in the past where Russia completely removed Poland, Bulgaria, Denmark and the Netherlands from its network, and where some major Europeans accused the Kremlin of blackmailing its enemies.
Meanwhile, both inside and outside the EU, it is considering ways to reduce the bloc’s reliance on Russian hydrocarbons, with a think tank advising residents of the continent to turn off their thermostats to save energy.
Meanwhile, Italy began watering the use of air conditioning, limiting public buildings, government offices and schools to deal with artificially created temperatures of at least 25 degrees Celsius (77°F).
The scorecard comes just weeks after the country’s president, the devout Europhile Mario Draghi, told the public that they would have to choose between “air conditioning or peace” in Ukraine this summer, but the country’s authorities don’t seem to have done so. . based on his unilateral actions, he really intended to make this issue public.
