You are talking trash

The news said Russia projected what it will get for march via oil and gas sales

it fell short by a whooping $3billion

All these things you are vomiting is rubbish




You people are just so dumb

Imagine saying America the biggest producers will buy to sell to Europe
You are definitely not educated

You can’t differentiate between oil exporters and petroleum products producers
Shame on you
And you’re rating like you have something up stairs, well you have CNN up stairs to think for you grin

China and the US is one.
US has been giving China money to make weapons for their army.

US ha been funding the Chinese Military to supersede theirs on arm race?

Super sonic speed over a distance of 40000 kilometers at a time frame of 1hr10 mins
This intercontinental ballistic missile China and Russia has succeeded to achieve would make the US trend cautiously
Am sure the US would develop theirs shortly
But what’s the Essenes of NATO bases again
Russia has tested theirs on Ukraine

It's so funny how you sty in Nigeria to name drop 'the whole of Europe'


India is under pressure to stop buying Rusian gas.
China has refused to criticize Russia because it depends heavily on Russian gas


However, in Europe the case is different... one by one each of the EU countries are disconnecting themselves from Russia and turning to other alternatives. These things don't happen overnight because some of those nations have actually spent billions building pipelines linking them to Russia... especially Germany

Ukarine, Romania, Norway, Poland... all are top oil producers


In world order... Saudi Arabia is the largest oil prodcer in the world followed by Russia and the USA and Iran.

However, in countries with the largest oil deposits... the USA is number one followed by Saudi Arabia then Russia and Iran
what i am trying to tell you is that some countries have oil but are not producing and selling a lot of it... Iran and the USA for example. But with Russia now messing up the USA has already started producing more and Iran is fighting for sanction relief so as to follow... just watch
What are you saying
Why would European countries get involved in building a pipeline from Russia with billions when they have crude, or don’t you know natural gas deposit is different from crude deposit, and Russia has abundance of both at a very cheap rate, you claiming that Norway,Romania and Poland produces crude and gas, I don’t even know where you got that claim from, these are countries who buy, store and refine
Even the USA can’t even produce enough for their consumption due to the nature of their topography and ability of so of their oil marketer to ramp up production
India just like Hungary and Germany would keep buying gas from Russia theys no other choice as well as China that isn’t yielding to the pressure of the west
Saudi Arabia has started talks with China to use the chine yuan for oil trade with China

Any deal with Iran is death for now till next year, how would Europe survive the winter and inflation hiking economy presently on, hike in energy and food scarcity for a year

I believe those sanctions would be eased off very soon with Russia’s aim already achieved in reclaiming the Donbas region and demilitarization of Ukraine, Putin’s aim wasn’t to seize the whole of Ukraine hope you know that

;DGazprombank is still untouched, oil and gas export still untouched, some banks still using SWIFT, their ambassadors and family still untouched, visa application with Russian citizens with link to the military or have served in the ministry still untouched, extended families or even wife, children (especially those once still schooling in Europe, america[center][/center], still untouched, sanctions on their health sector not done yet ...lol
The things you listed can’t arm an economy except from the oil and gas sector as well as the bank, the central bank has already been sanctioned what more harm can be done with the commercial banks been sanctioned, one thing you should know, they would always be a way, financial system always have poop holes as for the oil and gas sector we both in that’s not going to happen

It's systematic sanction. It's in phases. It'll become fully effective when other European nations find alternative sources of gas.
Hopefully, it'll be quicker than expected since Putin has decide to start asking for rubles
The sanctions would cripple the Russia economy they said, we saw the opposite
Now it’s systematic abi
Ok oh

The world has been trying to go green for a decade now with no positive impact

It’s not that easy to go green on an industrialized Community, if it was that ease, they would have do it since 2014 and stop relying on Russia energy

And don’t even say they are other energy market with Saudi Arabia wanting to sell their oil in Chinese currency, with Venezuela on sanction as well and their President against the west

If u say "Germany, UK and USA are currently putting together more sanctions", then it clearly means that previous sanctions put together didn't have the desired effect on Russia
If the present sanctions didn’t have effect and the 2014 sanctions didn’t have effect as well with Russian economy booming more, how sure are we that the up coming sanctions being put together would have an effect

It’s just too funny
I can only picture one person face

Russia sell all it makes to the whole of Europe and yes, American.
With the sanctions.. guess what?... no market
And who says theys no more market, with India and China buying more presently
Even USA and the whole of Europe is still buying till the end of the year with ‘hopes’ of cutting of Russian energy supply ‘hopes’ and USA having no plans of stopping fertilizer importation from Russia
What kind of sanction is that cheesy

The effect is much less in EU because they are not facing sanctions so can replenish baby food or basically anything through imports from all over the world.

On the other hand Russia is facing immense sanctions so cannot readily replenish stock.

The only areas EU are feeling the crunch is when it comes to those items they used to import from Russia. Now they diversify.

Russia is doomed and even Putin knows it. Their economy is expected to shrink by a whopping 15% this year and this would totally wipe out 15yrs of their growth. grin

EU is facing inflation of between 5% and 8%. But Russians are are having to cope with inflation of 20%.

Even their central bank has massively hiked interest rates to 20% grin

This is Russias worst economic chaos since the 1990s when their economy tanked by just 7%. This time it will be 15% this 2022 and that trend will continue in 2023. grin

We can effectively start reciting the requiem for Russia if this continues grin

What and what has Russia been importing more

Russia has been feeding the whole of Europe, part of Asia and the west with energy for as long as I can remember
And energy is a very important commodity for industrialized societies

Even your glorified USA is the largest importer of products from China

Stop forming smart you’re just a keyboard warrior

Lol! Air and land is closed... By the time they close the sea, russia will then remain in russia! This means that they cannot move out any product to anywhere in the world. When this happens, he'll understand that his stupid war needs to end.
Which air and land did they close with China, Pakistan and India being a common boarder neighbors with Russia, with their economical trade still going on, have you forgotten Russia is in Part off Europe and Asia as well, you probably don’t know anything as The West, Asia and Europe feeds off Russia cheap gas and petroleum products

Why didn’t Europe and USA halt the importation of gas and crude from Russia immediately
USA is not even stopping the importation of fertilizers from Russia

You’re here capping rubbish

Hello! A tree does not make a forest

How many fronts can Russia fight! How many powers can they go against. NATO and allies, with neighboring countries secluding them, who else who loose most.

Russia has no resource peculiar to it and can always be sourced anywhere.

Opportunities for Nations who have not been on stage with their resources.
Russia is not standing on its own they are allies with two big economies, the biggest in the world being China, this sanctions is only coming from Europe and the west who are dependent on cheap Russia gas and petroleum products, in which they enrich themselves, take a look at North Korea aren’t they still surviving

They is no way they can isolate Russia it’s impossible, which other oil producing country in the world exports cheap crude in large quantities like Russia. None
What other commodities are you talking about,
Is it fertilizer, they are the worlds number one due to their large natural gas reserve
Are you talking about wheat, Ukraine produces the larges in the whole and it’s in ruin followed by Russia
India and China are importing and exporting more with Russia right now with the given good opportunity and trading with these two economy covers that of Europe alone

We learnt from the previous world war so we don’t believe everything the western media’s say, we dig deep

Try to educate your self more
They are more looser in this crisis that winners
The West would loose, Russia would loose and EUROPE WOULD BE THE BIGGEST LOOSERS

Your god Putin Miscalculated. Stop wailing. Those nations must have weighed their options and thought it's more profitable to isolate Russia. What's your pain here? Please hypertension is real.
It’s obvious they earn more on hiked energy price

Secondly Putin is not my God , Putin is what karma sent to them ok, for all the atrocities and havoc they’ve caused elsewhere

Do what I say, not what I do
‘Hypocrites ‘ that’s how hypocritical they have been toward Africa and the Middle East
They are all hypocrites and wouldn’t think twice before doing what would favor only them first before considering you, take a look at the France Australia submarine deal, Uk and US swooped in and stole the deal from France
Remember the USA pulled out of afghan without their allies
What Mr Zelensky the rookie hasn’t realized is , the interest of your country comes first which these other countries are practically doing, which Mr Putin is also doing

Mr Zelensky would continue to beg till the end of his regime with him successfully taking his country backwards, the opposite of what he actually wanted, but he didn’t act with caution

Poland, Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia have decided to close their land borders with Russia and Belarus, Ukraine’s Minister of Infrastructure Mustafa Nayyem said, News.Az reports citing UNIAN.

Nayyem noted that Poland, Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia will completely close the roads for trucks belonging to Russia and Belarus in the next 48-72 hours, thus completely isolating Russia.

"Last week, we officially appealed for the closure of any highways for Russia and Belarus. Our appeal was immediately responded to. We are waiting for the final result,” the Ukrainian minister added.

It should be noted that after the war in Ukraine, the European Union closed its airspace to Russian aircraft. However, Russian transportation is carried out by land.

For every action they is an opposite reaction, this would only have effect on their diplomatic relationship, both parties get to loose, but I see Poland and co loosing more, the things you use to get cheap from your neighbor would come at high cost getting it else where, Russia would only have to throw their abundant products out into the international markets at affordable cost and still boost its economy
