PUTIN IMPOSES A PRICE CAP OF HIS OWN ON WESTERN GAS COMPANIES !
(.......if the payment amount is higher than the price set by the Russian government)
Vladimir #Putin has signed an order forbidding #Gazprom from buying gas from joint ventures with Western companies, such as #Wintershall, #DEA and #OMV, for more than established by Russia price for 1,000 cubic meters.
This automatically kills remnants of Western involvement into the Russian natural resources, plus shuts down any shady Western "brokerage" deals.
Many people in NYC and London were having a bad bad day yesterday.
Here is the order itself (in Russian, obviously)
According to the decree published on the government portal, “Gazprom” and its affiliates are prohibited from paying for gas, i.e. its production and transportation, from joint projects with its EU partners in Russia if the amount of payment is higher than the price set by the Russian government.
The decree is aimed at “Gazprom’s” joint ventures with the German “Wintershall” and the Austrian “OMV”. In partnership with two companies, “Gazprom” is developing two large natural gas deposits in Russia, the South Russian and #Urengoy Fields.
The decree was introduced retroactively, so it applies from March 1, 2022, and will be valid until October 1, 2023.
The government is responsible for determining the price limit within ten days.
Both Germany and Austria are members of the EU, which has imposed more sanctions on Russia in connection with Ukraine.
Wintershall director Mario #Mehren said in April that Russia had crossed red lines in its partnership with European companies, which means the end of the “era of long and intensive economic cooperation” between #Russia and #Germany.
However, he said over the summer that his company has no plans to abandon joint ventures in the country.
OMV has refused to make new investments in Russian projects and has announced plans to review its participation in the South Russian field, where it owns a 25% stake.

THREE POLITICAL AXES MORE USEFUL THAN LEFT VS. RIGHT
Mainstream political discourse is hopelessly divided into the two poorly-defined camps of "Left" and "Right".
Leftists believe they’re the good and nice people against the evil and nasty rightists.
Rightists believe they’re the good and tough people against the evil and weak leftists.
The truth is that both sides are fuckwits.
The left vs. right axis is bullshit anyway – it’s completely arbitrary.
Leftists claim to be for the working class, then dump hordes of violent refugees into working-class neighbourhoods.
Rightists claim to be conservatives, but have conserved nothing, being more than happy to sell their descendants’ inheritance at discount price.
The truth is that there is a multitude of different axes upon which we can divide people’s political attitudes.
The left vs. right axis has been subject to so many lies over the decades that talking about it no longer conveys any useful information.
But there are at least three political axes that are still useful.
First:
Mainstream academia likes to pretend that there’s no such thing as left-wing authoritarianism.
Anyone who has read The Gulag Archipelago knows, this is bullshit.
Left-wingers are more than happy to dictate how others are allowed to live, as evidenced by the creeping spread of cancel culture.
Right-wing authoritarians exist, of course, in the form of theocrats, and centrist ones exist in the form of Nazis.
But fighting against one or two of the three kinds, while ignoring the malice of the others, is foolish.
All that can be achieved by such an approach is to let authoritarianism in through the backdoor.
George Orwell summarised this insight best when he wrote :
“The real division is not between conservatives and revolutionaries but between authoritarians and libertarians.”
As a simple comparison of the American Revolution versus the French and Russian ones makes clear, libertarian revolutions tend to go much better than authoritarian ones.

I'm curious to know what the average "#Christian" in the #US would think if they knew that their tax dollars are being used to support #Ukrainian #Nazis who conduct neo-Pagan/anti-Christian torchlit nightime rituals.

Ukrainian-style press freedom – accreditation in return for favorable image
Such a deal was offered to award-winning journalist Matilde Kimer, who has been working at the Danish Broadcasting Corporation, after she was labeled “pro-Russian” for posting photos taken in Russia and her press credential in Ukraine was removed
On August 22, the Danish reporter received an e-mail from the press department of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, in which she was told that her accreditation had been canceled “in accordance with the request of the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU)”
But as it turned out this was just the beginning! During the meeting at the SBU HQ on December 8, an officer named Oleg, among other things, suggested Ms. Kimer to make “good stories about Ukraine” in exchange for the return of accreditation and use some internal SBU documents that could help to compose such creatives
