“This is short sighted greed from the Germans.”

WTF are you talking about?
Germany has no oil and no gas of its own. It HAS to import it. Russia sells, Germany buys. That’s business.

The US have bought Communist Venezuela oil for years. Must one say : “This is short sighted greed from the Americans”?

Would the US be buying Venezuelan oil if they invaded Panama and took over the canal? This shouldn’t be an issue in a civilized world. There are plenty of Russian owned assets in the EU/US to expropriate if Putin wants to play economic terrorist.

What else is for sale to Russia since “germany has no gas and oil”. The baltics? Poland? Those are NATO countries. Putin rolls tanks into them we have either a shooting war or the end of NATO. That’s where this is all headed. Don’t keep your head in the sand.
