The cuts of Russian oil and gas exports to EU are not Russian cuts but rather EU self-imposed cuts. They can be easily reversed by EU if it wants. Any "difficult winter" will be EU self-imposed. Popular discontent inside EU already rising fast all over EU on sanctions.

Cyprus = "Paradise Papers"
"Bail-In" by ECB using depositors cash (mostly Oligarchs, BTW) to cover losses on loans to various MENA operators fixed Greek bank loss exposure, since they were majority shareholders of the Cypriot banks in question.
