Hello,
my opinion is it is quite easy with Russia. They want the Ucrainian, and maybe some more nations back that formerly belonged to their cordon sanitaire.
As well Putin keeps on testing how far he can go with bis power games until someone plants a fist in his face. I would say the sooner someone does it the better. And since we are at that, please do not forget our previous german chancellor Schroeder, working for Gazprom now he can get two of those from me

.

Russia has stopped the deliveries through the Ukrayina altogether, and claims the Ucrainians would have stopped the flow to the EU - which is complete bullsh*t. They do not get any gas, with current temperatures of -30 degrees Celsius. Everyone knows Russia is blackmailing Ukrayina since they parted from the Soviet Union, and want to become part of the NATO.

This whole presentation in the russian press is a joke - just saw this "masterpiece" on the TV. The situation is played in front of running cameras like an ancient piece in a theatre:

Putin sits at a table, the Gazprom boss walks stiffly in and sits down (name is not necessary, Gazprom is no free enterprise, this "boss" is exchangable). Both men are trying hard to look honest and sober, with a solemn, grave expression on their faces (like imagine our politicians being asked for their salaries :rotfl: )

Now there's following dialogue:

Gazprom boss sitting down and facing Putin: "The Ucrainians did not pay the gas bills! I propose stopping all gas deliveries to Ukrayina!"

Putin not moving, staring at a wall: "You say Ukrayina did not pay, and there is still gas delivered to Ukrayina. We are pumping gas to our european friends (the word "friends" is pronounced even more grave), and Ukrayina has closed the taps. I say stop all deliveries to Ukrayina."

Gazprom boss standing up: "Yes. We will stop all gas deliveries to Ukrayina."

The Gazprom boss is seen leaving the room, and the camera zooms in on Putin's face, who is trying hard to produce an intelligent facial expression, or what he thinks that is.
Then there are some "experts" discussing this comedy :rotfl: :rotfl:
Only problem is the russian mafia would be even worse without Putin :hmm:

Sorry, but this TV show was simply too much for me.

Greetings,
Catfish
