Ukraine stops buying Russian gas, closes airspace
Yahoo News AP ^ | November 25, 2015 | NATALIYA VASILYEVA

Posted on 11/25/2015 2:30:07 PM PST by Navy Patriot

Tensions between Russia and Ukraine escalated Wednesday as Ukraine decided to stop buying Russian natural gas, hoping to rely on supplies from other countries, and closed its airspace to its eastern neighbor.

Russia's annexation of Crimea from Ukraine in March 2014 and its support for separatist rebels in the east has brought relations between the two countries to a post-Soviet low. Ukraine has since been trying to cut its dependence on Russian gas.

Russia's state-controlled gas company, Gazprom, said Wednesday that it stopped sending gas to Ukraine on Wednesday morning and will supply no more because Ukraine has not paid in advance for more deliveries.

Then the writer totally contradicts herself and says that Russia cut the Ukraine off because of overdue bills.

I find this subject interesting and look forward to a discussion. Then ETL pops up and turns every discussion concerning Russia into a spam mud wrestling fiasco for his own stupid ego.

Hey mods, how about banning ETL on these Russian threads. He posts the same crap over and over.

Re post 19
Love it when unID personality pix pops up in comments and we are supposed to figure out who it is. The lapel pin looks like the national flag of Georgia. Who is this ?

No, it's to provide idiots like you some badly needed background on who and what Putin is, and what his true intentions in the Middle East and Eastern Europe are.

“No, it’s to provide idiots like you...”

This is why people can’t stand you or your spamming.

Instead of engaging people here in a debate, you’re first reaction is to throw out insults, just like a commie liberal.

You do need to be thrown out of FR.

“I was just returning your insult of me.”

That wasn’t an insult, ETL. It was a completely accurate assesment of what you do. You DO spam every Russian thread with the same websites, over and over again.

You DON’T engage in debate. You hurl insults at people because they don’t agree with you. That’s what liberal commies do.

My "stupid ego" isn't an insult?

Anyway, what you label "spam", as any FR Putinista would do, is incriminating evidence on Putin and what he's really about. It soundly supports the assertions I make regarding him and his true intentions in the Middle East and in Eastern Europe. The KGB/FSB thug is basically trying to restore the Soviet Union and then-some with the addition of the critically important, resource-rich Middle East. Are you REALLY okay with that, sergeantdave?

Posting reams of websites over and over again is spam. What don’t you understand about that?

Engaging FReepers in a reasoned debate about an issue is called debating. What don’t you understand about that?

FR has a policy about spamming. Go look it up before you get banned.

If they weren't highly relevant to the points I'm trying to make, I would agree. Except they ARE highly relevant. What I'm doing is shoving the facts down these phony Putinista's throats so that they (hopefully) choke on em, and therefore are less inclined to try to push their pro-Russia/anti-US politics here on FR. The site now is overrun by them, and also those who are easily tricked into falling for their crap.

But they’re boring, boring, boring. FReepers have seen them a thousand times. Zzzzzzzzzz. Snore.

People want to know what YOU think. Give us YOUR opinion, ETL, not the same stale chopped liver you’ve posted a thousand times.

I’m done. G’night.

Yet, despite the many repeated postings on this subject (or any other) there are many people still without a clue as to much of the, frequently, critically important background material provided in my posts. What I do is dig up and compile stuff few people seem to know, recall, or understand properly, as evidenced by their comments.

I often express my own personal opinion on these threads, followed by or preceded by my mountain of evidence in support of it.

You are correct, Georgia, and the person is Mikheil Saakashvili, deposed criminal fugitive ex presiden,t now working with Obama, Soros, and the Homofascista Maiden Nazis in Ukraine.

His exploits include murder and serious human rights crimes against ethnic Russian civilians in South Ossetia and initiating the short war against the Russian Federation when they provided protection to the Ossetians.
