#pakistan will now have to #ration their #gas #supply due to #shortages https://www.zerohedge.com/energy/pakista.. I wonder whether #china or #russia who they have become good friends with will help? Or will it again be the #west ? The new #uk #pm is already wanting to send #aid to #pakistan , because...? I struggle to answer the question, given how much they hate and ignore us. If they would stop #raping our #children , that could be a nice gesture.
I spoke to people who were in these #meetings about the #uk #planned #blackouts during #winter due to a lack of #russian #gas https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/le.. They are said to be " #wargames ", but these are #planned potential #reality . On top of this, it looks like it will be a really #cold #winter this year.
#germany is in for a *very* #cold #winter as a #gas #shortage is expected to hit the #eu , meaning there is *none* at *any price:* https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/g.. The #uk is also in for the same deal, but little #preparations are made here...
Okay... #russia are claiming they cannot #conform #gas #supply to #italy apparently due to #issues in #austria ? https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/ru.. On the plus side, #italy had already made great efforts to #diversify their #naturalgas #supply away from #russia . Just in the nick of time.
Oh dear, the #eu #propose a #pricecap on non- #natural #gas #generated #electricity https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/eu.. I #suspect what we will see is that #energy #companies will rather #sell their #fuel to places willing to #pay more than they would get for #burning it. This #policy is #doomed to #fail .

Well damn, #germany just #seizedcontrol of #russia #gas #import and #storage #company #gazprom https://youtube.com/watch?v=YNgf7Nu7tsY The #hackernews #comments are quite interesting on this one, making the #claim that they purposefully ran #reserves as low as possible before the #invasion of #ukraine to #weaken #germanies #energy #security https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=309..

This move by #russia is #genius - they are #forcing #hostile #nations (those who imposed #sanctions ) to #buy their #gas #resources in #rubles , #pumping the #ruble significantly: https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/russia..
Apparently #russia #threaten to #cutoff #gas to #europe and the #eu by stopping #nordstream 1: https://www.zerohedge.com/energy/first-r.. A lack of #energy #security could still be Europe's undoing.
The #uk gives #aid to #pakistan , #pakistan then #supports #russia 's #putin by taking his #oil and #gas https://youtube.com/watch?v=FKtpgcEhTWI *You can't have your cake and eat it.*
Well shit, looks like the #eu are actually going to cut #russia out of #swift https://www.reuters.com/markets/europe/c.. This means they are likely to #retaliate by cutting of #gas and #oil to all of the #west , whilst getting more friendly with #china .
As expected, #russia are going to #squeeze the #eu over their #gas #pipeline #plans https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/winter.. The #eu should hold tight, as relying on #putin for #gas in the future for #energy would be a #longterm #mistake - but will of course cause major #problems in the #nearfuture ! A big #decision for them to make soon. I'm leaning towards them #bendingtheknee to #putin ...
