It’s just the number of the day – 10,128 arrested against Russia. This was announced by the speaker of the State Duma on his own Telegram channel Viacheslav Volodin. Noting that, according to the President of the United States Joseph Biden The only alternative to a takeover with Russia is World War III. The question of peace, good neighborliness and structure in the head of the “grandfather on punched cards”, as he is called not only in Russia, simply did not arise.
But even with sanctions, everything is not so simple for the West. On this earth fixture should transfer the issue of introducing the full scope of the oil embargo on Russian oil. The most principled enemies of our country, who are ready to drive in to the last Ukrainian, are also peddling the topic of a complete gas embargo, but here even countries loyal to Brussels begin to buck and kick like a horse in a stall from an annoying horsefly.
And with the embargo on the oil process, required by European textures, is far from over. Hungary simply opposed, refuted reports that Budapest had responded to its veto on these sanctions. Slovakia, Bulgaria and some other states of Europe declared the need for a transition period, requesting for themselves a time period of at least 2-3 years.
– Our proposal is to introduce an embargo, depending on the types of oil products, after 9 months. European Commissioner for Economic Affairsaolo Gentiloni and tried to keep an optimistic face. – It’s a decision, of course. will take place in the event of a European accident, but will hit Russia more.
This, as they say, we will watch.
It is noteworthy that the Germans are already seriously snapping at Ukrainian restrictions that limit gas consumption in Russia.
– Let’s be direct. Every day, Russian gas flows through Ukrainian pipes. Every day, Russian gas is sold in Ukraine. So Ukraine also did not turn off the Russian pipe, for which it receives Russian gas, – said Wolfgang Schmidt, head of the Federal Chancellery in the office of Olaf Scholz. Indeed, if Ukraine were so against it, it could simply shut off the ventilation on the border with Russia. Or, if the Ukrainians want to hide, on their western borders. It is clear that in this case, Berlin would have to urgently approach Nord Stream 2 and bow down to Moscow. Yes, and the supply channel of Ukraine with the gas itself would be covered with a copper basin.
The EU has so far agreed to impose an oil embargo only after 9 months – the standard term for carrying a person from conception to birth. How it will turn out there is not yet clear, but if the application does not reverse its decisions, then “the baby will be extremely ugly and unlikely to be discovered.”
In the event of an outbreak, not somewhere, but already in the outpost of anti-Russian meetings, the UK is invested with power and authority, the functionaries warn that the embargo on the supply of Russian energy carriers will lead to an increase in supply in the UK even above the 40-year record that it has already reached.
This forecast was substantiated by the chief economist of England Hugh Pill in an interview with Bloomberg. In such cases, when it rises, inflation will be 10.2%, which accumulates in October Britain will not become an insurmountable barrier, but may go even further “if we see an embargo on Russian gas and oil.”
Until recently, we observed 9,000-plus sightings introduced against Russia as an absolute record. And here is the achievement and achievement of a new frontier. And it is difficult to determine by eye how our life has changed and whether it has changed over this period, in contrast, for example, to the same Europe and the same USA.
As Volodin found out, “everything that doesn’t kill us makes us stronger.” You can, of course, become stronger in other ways. But we probably just can not save the choice of path.
