Originally posted by vindicktive vinny they do have control over the oil supply.
you obviously forgot the energy crisis of the 70s and mid last year where oil price dropped into the negatives.
fair enough, the relationship between the US and Gulf States (especially KSA) is complicated and the US isn't always the dominant actor in the relationship -

probably still is, they just load the front page with way too much tabloid shit now and employ too many fake and gay opinion writers.
Originally posted by Kev I dont get why US would want russia to cripple its most valuable colony? europe needs russia way more than they need her, they cant afford US gas, so what would she lose by starving them of this resource? many would quickly rescind their NATO membership and beg to join the eurasian union instead.
Gas is something they need, at least for now - Russian gas deliveries to the EU are actually overstated in the media, Germany is the main one that resells to other EU states and they only get about 40% of their gas from Russia. Regardless, if Russia were to cut off gas supplies to the EU, Germany would pay the premium to get US gas before making major political concessions like that. Keep in mind that Germany has been an occupied country since the end of WWII; Rammstein airbase isn't just there for convenience.
Originally posted by Kev and didnt the coup in the ukraine happen because the deep state wanted to kick out the russian naval fleet from crimea and replace it with a NATO base?
There were a lot of reasons for the Ukraine coup, the pipelines and Sevastopol (guaranteed control and power projection over the Black Sea) were two big ones but other things like disrupting the NATO-WARSAW PACT paradigm, being able to deploy TBMs and ABMs closer to the Russian boarder etc. were all part of it -

I said control, not just supply. KSA needs US-controlled supply lines to get that oil through the Gulf and to the rest of the world and Venezuela has been strategically kept from refining oil themselves - they've been forced to ship crude to refineries in the US. They haven't developed their own refinement industry in the past and won't be able to for a long time under current conditions. -

2021-01-25 at 11:58 AM UTC in Shit's getting real in Russia with OMONIf there's one thing that helps to understand all of geopolitics, it's that power comes from control over energy supply. It's been the root cause of almost every conflict since WWII. By controlling the flow of petrol and/or gas to a state not only are you able to demand a price for something they cannot do without, you're also able to control the speed of their development, their industry, even their ability to wage war. Why do you think Trump is helping the Kurds hold Syrian oilfields? It's not just for the money, but to starve Syria proper.
Originally posted by Kev i see what you mean. the only thing he is being too soft on IMO is not imposing the very real, devastating sanctions on europe by cutting off their gas supply. lets be real, nobody imposed any real sanctions on russia or else theyd stop buying their fucking gas which they KNOW they cannot without serious consequences to their economy.
why the hell did putin never give the ultimate ultimatum: we dont trade with NATO countries, go fuck yourselves.???
Doing this is exactly what the US wants.
As it stands, both Russia and the US have natural gas reserves they want to sell to Europe. Russia is able to sell at a much lower price because they're closer and they have pipeline infrastructure, whereas the US' only option is sea transit. The pure cost paid by the US to deliver the same amount of gas is almost double what Russia must pay, so Germany for example simply cannot afford to pay a huge premium just because they're 'better friends' with the US. The only country that does is Poland because they're retarded bootlicks.
I'll keep the rest of this short, but a large part of the reason for the US-backed insurrection and coup in the Ukraine was to disrupt the pipeline that carries Russian gas to Europe and make more-reliable US shipments seem more appealing. As a result Russia has been working on the offshore NORD STREAM pipelines to bypass the Ukraine and other US-friendly countries entirely, which has led to all sorts of attempts to block progress. Even the incidents with the Skripals and Navalny have been brought up in EU courts as a proposed basis to halt construction of that pipeline. -
