That would hurt. I’m glad that Russia has some non military options

Some have suggested Vladmir Putin’s first retaliation for the Turkish shooting down of a Russian fighter jet would be to cut off gas supplies (which represent 57% of Turkey’s supply). With Russia Defense Minister stating that the “downing of the Russian warplane is a ‘hostile act’,” adding that the defense ministry is “devising a set of measures to respond to the incident,” it seems taking the ‘nuclear option’ of cutting off 20% of Erdogan’s entire energy supply would be a strong first non-lethal non-World-War-3-starting step.
