The Russians have had Europe blackmailed for 20 years by cheap gas and they’ve been too stupid, corrupt you name it to look for other sources.
How’d that helicopter carrier France was going to sell to Russia work out? Best buds with Putler right
That's the other way around really.
For the last 20 years, Russia been the most pliant supplier of hydrocarbons for the EU. EU bigwigs treated Putin as a sleepy, ageing mediocre dictator whom they thought they can "control."
Russians carried EU through the high oil prices of 200X, making trillions for EU energy companies. EUrocrats though so high of their ability get anything magic pinata, which was Russia, that they though they don't have to engage with the outside world anymore, nor to keep vigilant with them. Crap cheap resources coming from Russia, widgets coming out, and money coming in — that was their simplistic worldview.
Few more years, and the transatlantic ties would've fallen completely.
Thats factual wrong. Russia never supplied more than 25% of EU hydrocarbon demands.
We're not sending tanks.
Volunteer for what? Russia is facist and worst enemy. There will be no relations for decades.
The EU breaks off all contacts and that is the end for Pussolini dreams about playing any significant role in the future.
P.s. i love your russian Propaganda. Its so simple and primitive. You can really feel its done by retard fsb morons.
Yes let's have China blockage India, and Indian goods be escorted by Chinese ships. Would you like that?
Attention to what? Your murican propaganda?No because I’ve been paying attention, obviously you haven’t
Israeli Nazi?I strongly suggest the weapons USA and NATO been sending to Ukraine and captured by Russia should be send to Palestinians for their fight against the Israel Nazis who are bullying and killing Palestinians.
Let the fight there be an equal fight and not just slingshots and stones against the Israel Nazis bullets and machine guns and tanks and fighter jets.
That doesn't change much about them selling hydrocarbons at too good to be true prices for too long to be a coincidence.
Same for Putin totally playing fools of EUrocrats.
We're not sending tanks.
We're sending old BMP-1s that we hardly need in exchange for much better Marder 1A3/A5.
Back in the early '90s we got some 500 BMP-1 Ost from East German stocks.
We donated 100 to Iraq,we gave or sold another 100 to Egypt and converted some 40 or 72 to ZSU-23-2.
If we send some 200-300 to Ukraine and get some Marder IFVs for that,it will be a success.

I hope we keep the BMP-1s that we converted to ZSU-23-2 carriers though.

What exactly are the gulf states going to buy that the Europeans were buyig in the same or greater quantity, it isn’t petroleum?I am not talking only from military POV but economy and politically and also Russian relationship with the world. Economically and internal politic Russia is okay. Their relationship with the world is not as bad as I thought before. Lavrov is having warm welcome from GCC states in his visit as we speak now.
