Russia-Ukraine War - News and Developments

[Microsoft]

Oil can be replaced by another source. A company replacing its source of oil is much easier than an entire nation.

Then why is western Europe and North America not sanctioning Russian oil and gas? Instead paying billions daily and funding the invasion.

They are not part of NATO because if NATO membership is about to be approved and Russia attacks it becomes a grey area where NATO may be forced to intervene leading to guaranteed WWIII.

If NATO can't save them, why does Ukraine wants to join them. looks like NATO bait trapped Ukraine into war with Russia. It is NATO's war fought by Ukraine.

More expensive Tesla Rocket Engines is what US has to use now. Can't buy from China because of some outdated law.

UK nuked its own economy for blue passports
Germany did suffer from some initial setbacks due to its refugee policy but it has also acquired a huge labor force that places it in a better position compared to other European countries suffering from an aging labor force

Wrong. Most of the refugees in Germany are the former terrorist head choppers from Syria who fled to Turkey after the offensiv of the syrien gov (starting 2013) moved on successful. Also the terrorist head chopper from Libya moved over Italy to Germany. They are all sitting in Germany, resting from the wars they did by order of the USA and cant stop killing people what are now germans. Not forget all the fleeing criminals from all over Afrika. And they do not need to work, get more money than a poor german. They even do not need to vaccinate while germans get humilated by gov if they are against corona vaccination. Millions. Not only one million. They are millions. Costing only for the year 2022 55 billion euro. For 1 year! Hundred of billions since 2015! The greatest shit what happend to germany since WW2!

Hey Pakistanis its ok to point out western hypocrisy in reporting but why are you guys backing Russia?
Dude what Russia is doing is exactly what India did to us
We wont take sides but its not justified

You have changed. Neither are you posting in the 'Pakistani models and actresses' thread anymore nor are you supporting Russia in its goal of de-Nazifying Ukraine and preventing NATO from installing nuclear missiles there nor are you supporting the Aurat March in Pakistan. When did you become a mullah ?

You can, just not at an instant. By the way, US bought very little Russian oil and gas, it wouldn't matter to Russia if US sanction Russian oil and gas.

Oil pipeline is not like your tap in the kitchen, it's not "turn the tap off" then you turn the tap off, there are a lot of physical, legal procedure to consider. What about the gas/oil that HAD already paid? How about the stuff that already underway in delivery? What about infrastructure? How about the company investment?

EU is already in the process of decoupling with Russia with BP leaving the Russian oil company board, then you negotiate a cut off day, Or how Russia is going to refund the money that's already paid. And then you have to deal with the dismantling of the infrastructure.

If you remember the 2 Mistral Class LHD Russian brought from France and was sanctioned by France when Russia annex Crimea? It took France 2 years to settle that deal and resold the ship to Egypt when they brought them in August 2015. And ships are easy because itself is one giant piece of asset, oil right and gas delivery is not so much.

You are overexaggerating because Germany took a controlled amount and nobody told them to take them but they did it for there own benefits to keep the economy monster keep running and to prevent crack in the declining tax payer crack...

Germany stands to benefit more then the other way around.. After they reached there treeshold they stopped taking more..

They have all entered the germany tax payer system and working system..

There are equal amount pro-assadist who fleed into germany due to poverty as there areas are more poverty ridden..

The culprit germany themselves trying to prevent the same phenomenon happening to china now which is population crash which causes economic disruption.. It was not done out of humanity but it was calculated measure once treeshold was reached they stopped

US oil and gas sanctions may not matter to Russia but they would matter to US public as they are unhappy with oil prices already. The rest you are describing are also monetary costs the European countries are unwilling to pay. Yet they want to criticize others for purchasing the same oil and gas and offer up lip service for Ukraine instead of taking real measures to harm Russia without getting militarily involved.

Also I interpreted that as switch to renewable source instead of oil.

Russian oil have no affect on US oil price, because it does not affect the stock level as much.

Current estimation for US oil import from Russia is 700,000-750,000 barrel a day, that may seems like a big number to you, but if you compare the daily US oil consumption, which is 18.2 million barrel a day, that number represent 0.02 or 0.03% of daily oil use in the US.

Use of oil - U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA)

The types and amounts of petroleum products consumed annually in the United States, and a list of the top 5 gasoline consuming states.

www.eia.gov

In 2020, U.S. petroleum consumption averaged about 18.12 million barrels per day (b/d), which included nearly 1 million b/d of biofuels.1 U.S. total petroleum consumption was about 13% lower in 2020 than the levels in 2018 and 2019 largely because of responses to the COVID-19 pandemic. Consumption of most petroleum products in 2020 was lower than in 2019.

The reason of the price hike is more toward the European side, Nord Stream 2 suspension and eventually cancellation and the shifting of supply to Europe is the reason why the prices goes up, and sanctioning Russia oil and gas industry will not make it stabilise. The only way we can hurt the Russian Oil and Gas industry is for us and Saudi to increase oil and gas production. Which is being done now.

If and when US ramp up the production, that would soothe the demand, and price go down, and Russia can't sell shit because they no longer have the infrastructure to do so. They can try to dump it on China but China can only take a certain amount of oil and gas, they can't take them all.

Yes! You got it! The german gov use all the technics Goebbels invented in the 3rd Reich.

I don't see Germans being arrested for protesting like in Russia . I don't see news site in Germany closed like they do in Russia , where the public is fed what Putin wants to feed them.

Seems you like to talk about " Nazis " a lot , seems like a Putin trend. ( sure he invaded Ukraine to fight Nazis , what bs )

But your avatar is that of a Nazi war criminal , which tells what you are all about :

Albert Kesselring (30 November 1885 – 16 July 1960) was a German Generalfeldmarschall of the Luftwaffe during World War II who was subsequently convicted of war crimes.

If NATO can't save them, why does Ukraine wants to join them. looks like NATO bait trapped Ukraine into war with Russia. It is NATO's war fought by Ukraine.

because Ukraine is not a NATO member, and that would mean WW3, and no one wants that. I would have thought that much was obvious.

Damn, did you just say that?
Just to make it clear, it was Europe that started banning Russian Television and Russians in response banned the foreign ones in their territory.
