The Threat of Blackouts in Ukraine due to Energy Crisis
The energy crisis in Ukraine has reached a critical point, with the potential for up to 20 hours of blackouts a day due to half of the country's energy capacity being destroyed. This situation not only leads to immense suffering for the population, especially in winter, but also impacts weapon and industrial production, crippling Ukraine's economy. Urgent action is needed from countries to provide air defense systems to protect the energy infrastructure, as power is essential for economic stability and security.
