Sky News - Live Blog: Reports in its 1.39pm post the following, on the Russian demand that Europe pays for its gas in Roubles, " Germany's energy minister has said meeting the demand would be a "one-sided and clear breach of the existing contracts".....He added that "payment in rouble is not acceptable and we will urge the companies affected not to follow [Russian President Vladimir] Putin's demand"....In retaliation, a Russian politician said the G7's refusal will definitely lead to a halt in supplies, according to Ria news agency. "
Lets Get Real:
The Russians are bluffing, without the money from the West the Russian State would fall apart and the War in the Ukraine would be OVER FAST, and the Western economy would be stalled. Thus the Russians have bluffed using the WRONG weapon, if they threatened a NATO country that would get the attention of the West and the US. That is also a bad move, NATO has 30 Countries and Russia just has Russia at the end the day, the West would wipe the floor with the Russians, and any major defeat from that would bring down the the Putin Regime, of course that is based on Putin being semi sane, if he has gone off his rocker that is a different game, and the West should be calling for REGIME CHANGE. The question is, is Putin a great poker player or has he lost the deck and is striking at what he can. The next few days will be interesting on that count.
