Could this be that having to buy Russia oil from US isn't good for the people of Netherlands for example?

The fact that you're mentioning oil and not gas tells me you are not really familiar with the situation.

But no, getting yourself in a situation where you're dependent on cowboy regimes for critical resources is not good for the people.

Well, I didn't mention Gas because US is not selling Gas to EU, but they do in fact sell Oil to EU while buying Oil from Russia. It might not be the exact same oil and cycled through the reserves, but same thing.

		> Well, I didn't mention Gas because US is not selling Gas to EU Liquified Natural Gas aka LNG is a major US export product. The American export a lot of methane ("natural gas") this way to EU countries. I have no idea which of many factors you didn't understand here but it's a bad sign [Edited to correct s/expert/export/]
