Honestly if you call having to freeze or pay thousands of pounds to stay warm during the winter "winning", I'm afraid what you consider losing. Germany has been humiliated, they had to watch their own energy infrastructure get bombed by their "allies" and say nothing, like cuckolds. The continental middle class is being ground between the millstones of inflation and taxation (and I'll say nothing about windfall taxes). The West arbitrarily confiscating assets has discredited rule of law as they have been running afoul of the most basic property rights. China has become much more powerful because of this stupid war, and this should concern you. They are communists, and what is the main tenet of communism? Taking ownership of the means of production. They are the factory of the world, so that's a check. Now, they are taking over the raw resources. They have filled their strategic reserves to the brim (check it out) and can withstand an embargo. With KSA and Egypt joining the BRICS, they can actually mess with Suez. But all is well :)
