EU folded instantly to Putin, and scraps plan to price-cap Russian gas. #FreezeAndStarve

STORY: The EU has dropped plans to cap the price it pays for Russian gas.

Energy ministers from the bloc met Friday (September 9) in Brussels.

They scrapped plans for the cap after the idea failed to win broad support.

Member states in central and eastern Europe who still get gas from Russia feared retaliation by Moscow.

Russian President Vladimir Putin had said he would cut off supplies altogether if a cap was imposed.
