Russia has failed the world. They were trusted to ensure continuity of supply and we did business with them.
The markets have reacted appropriately by increasing prices to reflect increased demand. How people who can't afford it are helped is a matter for governments.

Always someone else to blame, eh, OB. Who’d have thought putting our energy security in the hands of a KGB agent who rigs the constitution so he can become a de-facto dictator would have gone so badly?
The problem lies right here. In fact, go and look in the mirror and it’s staring you back in the face. People like you who fell for conservative ideology that the state should have no role and the markets will satisfy our every needs. It was hardly unpredictable that capitalist actors would seek to rinse us for all we’ve got.
