I dont know where you are getting your russian export figures, ALOT of it is flowing through shadow tankers, through Ukraine etc. Here are October numbers:

quote:

Russia’s monthly fossil fuel export revenues dropped 4% to EUR 620 mn per day in October.

In October, Russia’s monthly export revenues from seaborne crude oil saw a 10% rise, the first in four months, to EUR 210 mn per day.

France was the largest importer of Russian fossil fuels within the EU in October, importing Russian LNG worth EUR 233 mn.

In October, 399 vessels exported Russian crude oil and oil products, of which 222 were ‘shadow’ tankers. 30% of these ‘shadow’ vessels were at least 20 years old.


In other words, the sanctions aint doing shat to them.

Hell, the CIA says zelensky is using our money for fuel, buying russian diesel on the side and pocketing the difference to the tune of 400 milllion USD the first year of the war.

Trump warned Merkel. She didn’t listen and Germany is now paying the consequences. The greenies have also had a hand. Coal used to fire their economy.

Telling the Truth is not jumping through hoops. You NAFO trolls are allergic to the truth. That's why we are in the situation we are in now.

Germany committed economic suicide over two decades by buying off on the Green Dream.


They did this, because they understood that they could get cheap resources, including natural gas, from Russia.

First rule of debate, when you grovel in personal attacks you have lost the discussion.

Citizen, how are you feeling about the ukranian "recruits" now fleeing the front lines? Is that a new strategy?

This isn't a victory. This is spending ~70 billion in cash on a pipeline project for Russia to export 50% of what it used to send to Europe.


when the peace deal is signed between Russia and Ukraine the gas going to China will be added to the Russian gas going to Europe again

Russia is smart for the short term to cozy up to china.

Russia is also going to hurt for their lack of foresight. China doesn’t give a shite about Moscow’s problems in the West. China cares about Outer Mongolia and Siberia’s untapped resources. They will come for it at some point.

Incorrect. China needs Russian cheap energy to continue to dominate manufacturing. Now they have secured it and paid most of the cost to build that pipeline. As Germany and western manufacturing collapses. Russia and China are joined at the hip. They both need each other. Look at China's auto industry dominating everyone else now.

Can you give an example of a thriving and modern European country? The last time I looked the US had outgrown them by 75% over 15 years.

Good. I hope China becomes more addicted to Russian gas than Europe ever was. If war ever breaks out between the USA and China. It will be a lot easier to cripple China by knocking out pumping stations on pipeline(s) from Russia to China than trying to bomb all their coal power plants.

Currently we could cripple them by closing off the pathways we secure. This is their pathway for an invasion of Taiwan

And exactly why Russia and China are joined at the hip. China needs Russia to carry out its goals in the next 20 years. That's why they signed a "No limits Partnership". This is just the reality now, ignoring it only makes it worse. By cutting off Russia from Europe and the West we did the worse thing possible, Uniting China and Russia.

The Ukraine bros have known this from the outset but they chose to ignore it because of their irrational hatred of Russia rooted in the Cold War and the phony propaganda that Putin rigged the 2016 election for Trump.

You have zero clue about oil and gas, refining or much else. They have been negotiating with China for years for this pipeline. No deal was made until Russia was bent over and tied down. China didn't even have to apply lube to stick it to Russia. Previously, there was only a small spur pipeline off of the pipeline to the Pacific Coast. The natural gas off Sakhalin Island already goes to China via smaller shuttle LNG carrier due the seismic zone a pipeline would have to cross. Almost all of the equipment for Sakhalin 1 (Exxon partnership) came from Louisiana, even the Arctic class offshore platform drilling rig.

Or MAYBE that was Russia's choice that they didn't pivot toward Europe in the last 20 years.
Keep taking up for Putin and spinning your bullshite. It's great entertainment.
