German Energy Giant Uniper Gives In 2 Russian Rouble Demand by Teaser4(m): 4:56pm On Apr 28, 2022
One of Germany's biggest energy firms has said it is preparing to buy Russian gas using a payment system that critics say will undermine EU sanctions.

Uniper says it will pay in euros which will be converted into roubles, meeting a Kremlin demand for all transactions to be made in the Russian currency.

Other European energy firms are reportedly preparing to do the same amid concerns about supply cuts.
Uniper said it had no choice but said it was still abiding by EU sanctions.


"We consider a payment conversion compliant with sanctions law and the Russian decree to be possible," a spokesman told the BBC.

For our company and for Germany as a whole, it is not possible to do without Russian gas in the short term; this would have dramatic consequences for our economy."

Only the masses will suffer..
Kudos to Germany,
Those people who dug a pit for Russia are the ones inside that pit.
Na them dey wail and Russia is getting Richer.
Some Nairalanders said before this time the Rubble will be like Tissue paper. Today the Rubble is far stronger than what it was before the war.
The US dollar is weakening even Naira is gaining against the dollar.
When you about to fight a formidable enemy, always have a plan B.
Russia produces virtually everything it needs.

Moldova does not recognize an alternative to Russian gas

"We cannot give up gas when we have no other alternative," said Moldovan President Maja Sandu.
Wednesday - expressing hope that Gazprom's deliveries will continue despite the outstanding debt.

Moldova announced a tender to find other stocks, but the results were "unsatisfactory" because all other tenders were "too expensive".

Moldova's agreement with Gazprom expires on May 1. To be extended, the country must complete a review of its huge debt, but it seems unlikely that the country will meet the deadline.

Also, Slovakia agreed to pay for gas with rubles.

You also observe that the number of false narrative hitting front page about the war from Western media is reducing rapidly.

As it always known, lies and propaganda will run hundreds of kilometres when the truth is only putting on its shoes. Propaganda don't win wars.

You don't understand? Countries are running away from the US dollars. What that means is that the US dollars will reduce in value, the US will heavily indebted, they will be hyper inflation in the US, they are about to become extremely poor. Simply put, their world dominance is coming to an end, that's why they are doing everything, including stealing reserves of other countries like Afghanistan and Russia.

But when the flight from the US dollars enters gear one, they will be massive dumping of the money. People and countries are going to be looking for something that is stable and will not lose value.
