some people in this world, mean what they say!” Putin is one of these. If he tells you he is going to punch you in the face if you do this, then brace yourself. You go ahead and do it, then, Putin will deliver!
And if he tells you that Russia isn't going to invade Ukraine ........remove the Nazi regime in Kyiv.....


Your hero Putin is a lying coward.

Oil and Gas is 4% of Russian GDP. Wait until the fertilizer shortage occurs, then the wheat and other grains. Russia can close borders, aka iron curtain, and Europe and Third World will have food riots. US exports will go up for sure, but not enough to handle the need. We will all be paying higher food prices. 2022 is not going to be getting better, economically speaking.

I must warn the Z Führer Putin fans that this link is from western media.

theguardian

quote:

European buyers would pay in foreign currency and then authorise Gazprombank to make the conversion into roubles, which would then be used to formally purchase the gas.

The convoluted scheme could allow the Kremlin to save face in its standoff with European governments while averting a potential gas shutoff to Europe over Putin’s demands to receive payment in roubles.

“I think this is mental gymnastics to pretend like they didn’t cave,” said Nikos Tsafos, an energy expert at the Center for Strategic and International Studies. “I think it was a bluff and the Europeans didn’t bite, rightfully so. And I think this is a way for them to pretend like they are upholding their threat.”


quote:

Draghi gave a similar interpretation of the deal. “What I understood, but I may be wrong, is that the conversion of the payment ... is an internal matter of the Russian Federation,” he said.

It is a good thing that Mr Mean Tweets has not got us into World War III.

Visa and Mastercard held by Russians through Russian banks don't work outside of Russia. So they are switching to a Chinese Credit card that works anywhere. Loser here, Visa and Mastercard West. Winner Chinese banks.

He is not my hero. Just a simple observation. He warned the EU and NATO to not come knocking on his doorsteps. They did, here we are.
This war is a direct result of US/EU policy and NATO expanding. Get over yourself.

Right?

I just assume anyone who calls someone a “Putin lover” is getting all their information from CNN or Reddit.

As if many politicians in the states are any better. I actually can think of many that are WORSE.

I just don't understand Germany. Let's see, I can look cool for the EU/west or let my people freeze and factories close. What should I do?



As you can see from the American left, there are in fact people who will allow death and destruction for purely vain/symbolic reasons.

You don't know any newly minted Neoprogs then.

They and their Neocon brothers will most certainly push for it.
