whatever, putin.

[MARKUSPRIME]

Ahh yes classic russian doublespeak. The EU needs wake up and watch their back with Russia. Once you become dependant on their petrol then they can tighten the screws for political leverage.Reagan warned them of this before the USSR disintegrated. Seems like he was right.

[GOP_Party_Animal]

"But he suggested no nation had the right to interfere in Russia's relations with third countries."

So Pooty-poo won't mind if we sell arms to the Chechens?

[MARKUSPRIME]

Lets help them build "reactors" for peaceful energy purposes. ;)

Looks like the ripples are still hitting home...

spanalot, are you still lying about being interviewed by the KGB?

[spanalot]

"spanalot, are you still lying about being interviewed by the KGB?"

No- not currently nor in the past.

And as you have so little to ponder, any idea why an American Vet like Romanov has nothing to say about his 6 years interviewing Russians who fought against us in VietNam

[spanalot]

"Putin asked: "How can leaders of other states say it is bad for the Ukrainians?" "

I'll go out on the limb on this but venture to guess that it is bad because PUTIN SHUT OFF THE GAS THAT UKRAINE BOUGHT FROM TURKMANISTAN FOR THE SAME PRICE RUSSIA PAYS FOR IT.

I see you are still spewing your fascist Ukrainian bile. Romanov interviewed SOVIET officers, not only Russians, and a large percentage of them were Ukrainians.

[spanalot]

"Romanov interviewed SOVIET officers, not only Russians, and a large percentage of them were Ukrainians."

Then why has he never shared his insights on this unknown aspect of US - Russian "Cold" war?

[GarySpFc]

Spanalot, your bald faced facist Ukranian lies were exposed at Back to the U.S.S.R. - the new Russia is sounding a lot like the old one starting at post 87.

Let em freeze.

I will very soory to see you limbless:). If Ukraine had the contract with Turkmen as you state then show taht contract to everyone please. Why they refused to show it? Isn't it because they simply lied about it:)))).

I hope you like eating crow.


"After a row of negotiations during 2005, Niyazov said in November that Turkmenistan would sell its gas to all buyers at $60 per 1,000 cubic meters starting from 1 January.

A highpoint in the Turkmen-Ukraine relationship came when Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko said in late December that -- under the deal reached with Ashgabat -- Turkmenistan would supply Ukraine with 40 billion cubic meters of gas at $50 per 1,000 cubic meters. He said deliveries would start in January."

Greetings Fraud. You not only lie, but do not keep up with things.

See: Ukraine, Turkmenistan set to discuss gas supplies, Dated 5/17/06

IEV, May 17 (RIA Novosti) - Ukraine and Turkmenistan will soon hold a new round of talks on the schedule of natural gas supplies for the second half of this year, the Ukrainian fuel and energy minister said Wednesday.

"We are planning to hold the next round of talks with Turkmenistan on [natural gas] supplies to Ukraine for the second half of the year...maybe in a week," Ivan Plachkov said.

In March, Ukraine's national oil and gas company Naftogaz and the Turkmen government signed an agreement on bilateral settlements on natural gas shipments to Ukraine in 2003-05.

Under the agreement, the $88.34 million pre-payment that Ukraine made for 2006 gas deliveries will be counted toward its 2003-05 gas debt to Turkmenistan, thereby clearing the hard currency part of the Ukrainian company's debt and recognizing a $68 million commodities debt that it pledged to discharge by August 10, 2006.

The agreement also said that the Central Asian republic was to deliver 40 billion cu m of gas to Ukraine at $50 per 1,000 cu m in the first half of 2006 and at $60 per 1,000 cu m in the second half. However, Turkmenistan has not delivered gas to Ukraine since the beginning of the year.

Plachkov said the new contract would determine the volume and price of gas supplies not only for this year, but possibly for the next five years, depending on the outcome of the talks.

Turkmenistan became Ukraine's principal supplier of natural gas after Kiev decided to buy less gas from Russia in the wake of a price dispute at the start of the year.
