Lots of them on here are hypocrites. He is probably using a Microsoft Windows at work and typing from a Google Android phone too. 1 Like |

Just like in Nigeria, we buy foreign goods and pay in their currency but when they buy from us, they pay us in their currency. Do you know the economic implication to that? 6 Likes 1 Share |

People just reason rubbish and type rubbish. Putin can't stop supplying gas. Russian economy is dependent on Western countries. Otherwise he would have done that to reciprocate the gesture. 1 Like 1 Share |

Elsueno: Everybody does not use dollar because they want to. Bretton wood agreement in the 40's is the reason why U.S have positioned herself for this current era. Now that everyone have accepted and uses dollar to trade and even mount up several dollar in their foreign reserve, in addition to that U.S have alot of industries occupying fortune 500, and including strong military. It will take time to ditch dollar. Nobody wants to loose their money anytime soon, so it's everyone's interest that dollar should not crash, not that like dollar anymore, but they have no choice any longer. No country is ready to loose its wealth anymore. And asides, U.S is still the largest holder of Gold in the world. It's not until China can compete and not manipulate their currency anymore.

ivolt:You have a good head � Putin can take as many measures as he can.. It still won't save the country's economic downturn in the long run. I don't think those shouting "NICE JOB!" really understand the debt of problems Putin's madness has caused Russians. Being cut off from the rest of the world in the 21st century is different from the 19th centuries or earlier. Russia will struggle to recover technologically, economically and politically. |

naijapower: This is what he should have done instead of launching an Invasion with no positive outcome. Now his leverage has faded away, Europe will be even more eager to cut the energy umbilical cord since they already view the energy purchases as funding his war on Ukraine.

SocialJustice: My point is, the countries that needs Russian gas will stress to get rubles. Oga think... it's not like you going to filling station and buying 4 liters to use for your generator. making deal with Qatar... No mean say Qatar go send them gas tomorrow. Infrastructure needs to be built... Which will take years. 2 Likes |

Hezzyluv:Worlds highest oil exporter and you say "a lot of people" don't know her currency. Anyway this is entirely your opinion, that you do not know does not justify the use of "a lot". In 2018 , Russia hosted the FIFA WC... Almost 800,000,000 fans visited the country and you say " a lot". I don't blame you for condemning this motive by Russia, I blame your ancestors, our ancestors who have worshiped the dollar since time immemorial and now almost everything revolves around the dollar. This war is an eye opener for the world, it's full of potentials for the smart nations. Russia is opening a part to a new world direction. If the 50% of the dollar is boycotted, trust me ... You will be a big boy in that Nigeria. This is a test phase, if Russia accepts rubble for payment then why can't Nigeria, why can't Iran, Saudi Arabia. This will bend the crown that has being g sitting on the west for too long. Change is highly welcome because the direction the world is headed is doom 7 Likes 1 Share |

There's pipeline already laid from Russia to other other countries with little or no risk of transportation compared to shipping with vessels from Qatar to EU.

As a matter of fact he is Russia controls natural gas in the world Russia holds 1/4 of the whole natural gas reserve in world Another fact Russia, Iran, Qatar and Saudi Arabia hold 50% of the natural gas reserve in the world So tell me how Russia won't be able to influence politics of natural gas? Russia still meets 45% of Europe gas needs despite being the 2nd largest Natural gas consumer in the world after US (consumes 20% of world's natural gas) If Russia decides to close LNG export for 1 day, there will be energy crisis in Europe If Russia decides to halt LNG export for 1 week there will be disaster all over the world Imagine what will happen when it doesn't export gas for 1 month USA already has sanctioned Iran energy sector, the only country with abundant natural gas next to Russia mployer: 1 Like 1 Share |

BloomingDale: Of course Yes, I understand that they need an alliance, especially with China, but China still depends on exports, and the main China customer for export is the West, that's why the situation is not easy as said. You have to weigh your pros and cons. How many advantages will China gain from Russia than Gas? and If the West also decides to decouple from China (though very dangerous for the West), it will hurt everyone. The market and commercial activities between China and the West is like Marriage, it will be messy during a divorce. China still has more than 500 million populations she is still struggling to get out of poverty. So, it's not a good idea for China now to divorce the West because they want to save Russia. That's why they are playing the game carefully. They also don't like the West, but still, power belongs to the West. |

tolue42: Qatar has other countries they are supplying to na. They already said it that they can't make up for the total shortfall from Russian gas that the EU wants them to cover. Netherlands has gas but it's not the same quality as that from Russia. That's Russia has the largest supply in Europe. 1 Like 1 Share |
