This is just the beginning.
So is Germany going to pay for gas in rubles or what?
In the end only the innocent people in EU suffers for something that has nothing to do with them.
War in Azerbaijan or Cyprus has nothing to do with them either but did not escalated because they were proxies of NATO.
It is burning a hole in their pocket and the politicians responded by pointing it out it was the price for electing us into office.
Now pay for it and shut up, they cried. Then the people said as in all so-called free democratic nation, just wait till the next election and that will be 4~5 years away.
EU people is brainwashed by western mainstream massmedia, and they are happy hating Kremlin.
They can't understand the economic consequences and even when they will live it, maybe they wont relation it with war.
Here in Spain electric energy prices are high since months ago before war, due to gas prices, and most of people can't understand the relation with make troubles in relations with Russia. They just blame their own government due to bad handle and that is all.
Democracy is not useful when people is brainless
When politicians play games, the common folks in the street suffer and pay for it.
Spanish should asked themselves what has the conflict in Ukraine instigated by the US supported by the newly recruited former members of Soviet Union who joined NATO has to do with them?
Chinese is smart. They see opportunity and bought cheap LNG oil and gas from Russia at a discount.
And why should the Chinese be blamed for being opportunistic?
It is business as usual. India also jumped into the wagon and bought some. And they are happy.
Today only the Europeans are unhappy at the high price of US gas. Unfortunately the politicians called all the shots. After election the people are just insignificant ants.
So carry on and Happy fighting. Creating propaganda is big business in Ukraine. NED offers good money.
