Kremlin media is actively spreading information about mass protests against rising energy prices occurring in the Czech Republic. Russia predicts similar protests in all European countries that supported anti-russian sanctions.

According to Die Welt, rallies under the conditional name «hot autumn» staged «pro-russian persons close to extremist positions».

At the same time, Olaf Scholz states that the country will confidently pass the heating season of 2022-2023. In addition, the gas storage facility in the EU, designed to compensate peaks of consuming in cold weather, is filled with 80%.

The strengthening of energy blackmail by Russia is to pressure the international community on the launch of Nord Stream-2, since both kremlin media and former Chancellor of Germany G.Schröder assure that the launch of non-certified NP-2 will be able to solve the situation with energy prices in Europe.
