What I find rather odd about all this fury (legitimate enough in itself) is the oddity that Ukraine has not stopped the flow of the pipelines that cross through Ukraine.

That’s an interesting question.

Here’s a Washington Post article quoting Ukraine national gas company:

If Ukraine took the initiative unilaterally and stopped the transit of natural gas supplies from Russia, Vitrenko said, the gas supplies would be diverted to other pipelines and make it to Europe anyway. That, he added, could make Ukraine even more vulnerable to Russian bomb strikes.
