Oil and gas can be bought in Central Asia, Azerbaijan and so on. It is corruption ties between Russian and Ukrainian bureaucratic and oligarch clans that preserve the RF as the almost only energy supplier and turned Ukraine into one of the main source of income for Gazprom and Kremlin (due to energically-inefficinet industry that has been built under the USSR Ukraine consumes more gas than Germany.)
In fact all the business success of Gazprom in Ukraine, Belarus, Cenral Asia is built on corruption, collusions that damage the peoples' interests of those countries.

You had 20 years to get rid of bureaucratic clans, oligarchs and energically inefficient industry. You have democracy after all.
