Guardian - Live Blog: Reports in its 2.48pm post the following, " Germany and France have again rejected demands by Russia that European countries pay for its gas in rouble as an unacceptable breach of contracts, adding that the manoeuvre amounted to “blackmail”, Reuters report. "
Lets Get Real:
Putin is trying to con the West the he will STOP the gas to the West, he cannot do that, the Russian economy would founder and Putin could not afford to carry on with his WAR in the Ukraine. The above is KREMLIN move to see if it can split the West on the issue of gas and its support for the Ukraine. One does wonder if Putin is that out of it, that he only sees what he wants to see and cannot accept that the WAR was a massive mistake. If Russia cuts off the GAS the European economy would take a major blow, but it would show that the West could not be blackmailed by Russia. The West should still pay for its gas through using DOLLARS or EUROS, if the Russians have a problem, then its their fault, they invaded the Ukraine and NOW they are paying the political price.
