Foreign Affairs › Germany, Italy Agree To Pay For Russian Gas In Rubles by shogsman(op): 10:44am On May 21, 2022
Authorities have told gas wholesalers they can open the necessary ruble accounts in Russia’s Gazprombank

Germany and Italy have allowed national companies to open ruble accounts in Russia’s Gazprombank to comply with the new natural gas payment scheme and avoid a supply cut-off, Reuters reported on Friday, citing sources.

The move comes after Poland, Bulgaria and most recently Finland refused to accept Russia’s new payment mechanism, resulting in gas flows from Russia being halted.

According to the outlet, the move was approved by Brussels after discussions with the European Commission and is not considered a breach of the sanctions that the EU placed on Moscow over the conflict in Ukraine.

Russia’s new payment scheme requires gas buyers from “unfriendly” countries that have placed sanctions on Russia to open accounts in Russia’s Gazprombank. They can then deposit funds in their currency of choice, which the bank converts to rubles and transfers to Gazprom.

German gas importers have reportedly been notified by Berlin that they can open ruble accounts to pay for Russian gas, as long as the payments they make to Gazprombank are not in the Russian currency.

The Italian government has also reportedly been in discussions with the European Commission, after which the Italian energy company Eni announced it had begun proceedings to open accounts at the Russian bank, one in euros and one in rubles.

"The decision is in line with what was communicated by the [European Commission's energy] department,” one of the sources told Reuters. Italy’s Prime Minister Mario Draghi last week called the gas payment situation a legal “grey zone,” as there is no official ruling on the matter within the EU. In its latest written guidance, the EU said companies can buy Russian gas without breaching sanctions if they continue to pay in the currency of their existing contracts, but did not mention whether opening ruble accounts would be a breach.

According to Reuters, some EU diplomats consider the Brussels guidance to be intentionally foggy, to enable countries to keep buying Russian gas.

“One has the impression that it leaves the door open for business as usual,” one of the sources said, while another said the situation creates “a level of creative ambiguity” with a purpose to “create just enough room for all the different interpretations.”

So far, over 2,000 Ukrainian soldiers have surrendered in Azovstal, Mariupol and more are still coming, in addition to over 1,000 at Illych steel plant. Also, over 1,500 have surrendered officially in Donbass. This makes up to at least 5,500 surrendered already and still counting but Russia is losing the war. In fact, Russia is suffering irreparable losses on a grand scale.
Not counting the over 1300 marines in March and a couple thousands then too

freakyamanda:
I had it all wrong. Ukraine is definitely winning and Russia is losing BADLY. All Russians has been able to do is capture places like Mariupol, Melitopol, Popasna, Kherson, secure a land corridor to Crimea and control territory in Donbass the size of UK, whereas Ukraine won the Eurovision.

Okay!!
Lmao,nice one

I really have no empathy for them because these are the same people that torment and kill black people at the drop of a hat. Less tormentors of my race is only a good thing.
So it is Iraqis that shot up a mall and killed 10 black people last week in the US,so it is Iraqis that killed millions of Jews and blacks for being inferior, is it Iraqis that colonized your country turning your fathers into slaves too cos I don't understand what you're saying

Bush unjustified invasion of Iraq still linger in his mind and this wasn’t a slip of tongue it was an absolute self own, why blame Putin when you can actually blame yourself for the same thing
That is what I'm saying exactly, no one is saying putin is a saint but how can someone that has done worse be blaming him what kind of hypocrisy is that.
This has been the practice of US for quite sometimes now ,a couple years ago congress signed a petition to declare AZOV BATTALION as a neo Nazi foreign terrorist group,but today the Congress hails them as heroes because they're fighting Russia

Former US president George W Bush has accidently condemned Vladimir Putin's invasion of "Iraq", before correcting himself by saying he was talking about Ukraine.

Mr Bush made the gaffe during a speech at an event in Dallas, Texas, where he was talking about the importance of fair elections.

He said, "the decision of one man to launch a wholly unjustified and brutal invasion of Iraq... I mean of Ukraine".

Mr Bush was president during the US-led invasion of Iraq in 2003 over weapons of mass destruction that were never found.
