Iran Press/ Europe: Initially, the price of energy went up with increasing demand, then the surge in demand came as the world's coronavirus pandemic condition improved and global quarantines ended.
Subsequently, Russia's military operation in Ukraine and the imposition of severe sanctions on the country also led to a jump in energy prices, especially oil, which has continued to this day.
According to Sputnik, the British people are protesting against the 54% increase in the energy price, and it is expected that in addition to London, there will be demonstrations in Liverpool, Manchester and Glasgow.
The British People's Movement has previously stated: "As the cost of living in London increases, so will our response."
British households are expected to see an increase in heating bills and other expenses this month; because the Conservatives raised the domestic energy price ceiling on April 1 to offset fluctuations in the energy wholesale market.
Russia, as the largest supplier of energy, provides more than 40 percent of gas, more than a quarter of oil imports and almost half of Europe's coal.
As the degree of dependence of EU member states varies, it is impossible to set a general deadline for cutting off Russian energy imports to Europe.
Germany, Italy, Hungary and Austria are among the countries that rely heavily on Russian energy resources. 219
