From the transcript
It was meant to be a winter of discontent a season in hell when Europeans, like me, paid the price for daring to oppose Vladimir Putin. Last spring, as Russian all but shut off its gas pipelines, predictions of a dire winter to come flooded the media, with energy prices soaring, inflation took off in America.
But it was here in Europe that the worst scenarios were expected to play out.
Scenarios like people freezing in their homes, like a double-digit crash in GDP brought on by a collapse of industry, like riots and insurrections as ordinary people rose up against their governments. Yet in the end, none of this happened.
