Kremlin wants to control pipelines from the beginning in Siberia to the end in your home. Previously they used the energy debts (in Belarusian case subsidies) of others countries to take over their state owned companies, like refineries, power plants etc.. Now Luka wanted to give them another company but not Belarusian gas monopoly. This time Russians don’t want anything else but Beltranshaz.
Nonsense! Gazprom wants a fair market price for their gas, which currently is $230, and that is half what we pay in America.
This is also my impression. Just wait until Gasprom takes over the German gas oligopoly of RWE, Eon Ruhrgas and BASF. I already know the chairman of the new consortium: A big big a**hole instead of a face that is puping extremely expensive and stinking Russian gas farts into our faces. The shaking question of this saturday evening: Do you know the new chairman too??!
I have no idea how to get out of this mess. Not only you Poles were betrayed. We German consumers have also to pay for all this BS.
Anyway I find it interesting that Gasprom is kicking Luka's a** now. The new Russian "elite" just seem to live for the new wave of materialism and the easy money that is nessecary for it. There are obviously no national values in new Russia left if they even forget about their old friend in Belarus. Nowerdays they come to the famous gambling house in Baden-Baden (not that far away from my home), spend millions and bazillions in roulette and baccara and behave like .... Not all of them, but many do. It seems to be the old story: Fortune favours fools.
You're defending Lukashenko and Soviet Era pricing.
And I thought I'd seen everything.
