BRUSSELS, May 2 (Reuters) - The European Commission may spare Hungary and Slovakia from an embargo on buying Russian oil, now under preparation, wary of the two countries' dependence on Russian crude, two EU officials said on Monday.
The Commission is expected to finalise on Tuesday work on the next, and sixth package of EU sanctions against Russia over its actions in Ukraine, which would include a ban on buying Russian oil. Exports of oil are a major source of Moscow's revenue.

Hungary, heavily dependent on Russian oil, has repeatedly said it would not sign up to sanctions involving energy. Slovakia is also among the EU countries most reliant on Russian fossil fuels.

Iran should buy Russian oil and resell it at a profit. What's the US going to do? Sanction it? LOL.

Lots of mysterious fires in russian oil depots and raffineries can also quickly spread to Iran. What can Iran do when its oil infrastructure blows up? Accidents happen.


Iran knows that and will not interfer.

Fun fact, Hungary and Slovakia combimed have less people than city of Paris.


By making excemptions to small countries the EU as a whole can introduce harsh sanctions without remorse.

Europe Is Buying Natural Gas At A Premium To Fill Up Its Storage​

By Irina Slav - May 05, 2022, 6:00 PM CDT

• Lower natural gas consumption has helped Europe stock up the commodity.
• Europe is paying a premium for natural gas as importers refuse to pay for Russian gas in rubles.
• American LNG has been a lifeline for European importers, but some worry that the region could trade its dependency for Russian gas for a dependency on U.S. LNG.

War costs money. Or do you think taking our enemy out js cheap?

For screaming out aloud, I wonder why Greece is not providing FREE gas to Hungary and Slovakia.

The head of Ukraine's military intelligence, Kirillo Budanov, said that the only way to end the Russian war in Ukraine is to kill Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Budanov made these comments during an interview with the newspaper "New Voice of Ukraine". He was asked about the possibility that Putin would end the war while he was still alive. Budanov replied that giving him a chance to withdraw is one of our strategies but that it is almost unrealistic.

The Russian president was exposed to 5 assassination attempts, which were revealed in 2017. At that time, Putin gave a televised interview to American director Oliver Stone, and the latter said that "the Russian president was subjected to five assassination attempts during his three presidential terms."

Putin, as a person, is the key. Russia is a total autocracy. Remove Putin, the war will end. And the war wouldn't even have started if some war mongers in Washington couldn't wait to grab Russia's riches by expanding NATO. Putin's death would have and will put Russia, at least from the west of the Urals, to be organically part of Europe. But some people, with roots in the American NeoCons, want to make big bucks and make it now!

All the US and NATO is left with is PROPAGANDA warfare.

But affected folks on the ground knew the truth.

1000 tweets is not equal a single truth or real ground scenario.

Yup. A million tweets are nothing compared with a 100 soldiers taking control of a small town. The so-called 'Lion of Panjshir' was supported a lot barely 6-8 months ago by a lot of social media noise but the Taliban conquered the valley which, till that time, was deemed impregnable.

Lots of mysterious fires in russian oil depots and raffineries can also quickly spread to Iran. What can Iran do when its oil infrastructure blows up? Accidents happen.


Iran knows that and will not interfer.

Iran has Israel by the $alls. And Israel has American establishment by the $alls. A war against Iran is currently unthinkable for those reasons. While Iran may get destroyed totally but they will bring down Israel and wipe them off the map as a livable country. Those who grow up well fed, secure, prosperous for generations, as in Israel, wouldn't want to live in a destroyed and endangered country--they would flee back to NYC or Moscow or Warsaw.

We provide gas to Bulgaria which depended 90% on russian gas and now found alternatives.


Its what chinese dont understand. Once the pipeline is closed, it never opens again. Its a short pain for the recipient but eternal damage for Russia. Russia gets sealed off completly from Europe and that also brings chinas silk road into trouble. European corporations wont send their goods via rail through russia and also will not accept trade via rail through russia.


Heared China already starts an alternative south of russia. Which tells me that china accepts that russia is a dead end.

 

[CAPRICORN-88]

Just when we thought Turkey is Greece perpetual enemy.

They expanded the list to include another one - one that is far beyond them - a superpower.

Accidents are not war buddy. In russia oil infrastructure blows up evry day.

Easier to remove Zalensky, Biden and Boris Johnson or Ursula Von Der Loyen.

They are all clowns anyway.

Remove Putin, the war will end.

Putin has nothing to do with it. It is Russian public that is becoming more and more aggressive.
