The company cannot "make ends meet" without Russians, German media write.
Back in 2020, CPR GmbH had financial difficulties. However, until 2022, she managed to "pull the rubber" and not close.
Recently, the main market of the enterprise has become Russian, where up to a quarter of all products went.
However, due to anti-Russian sanctions, payment for supplies in Russia has ceased to be possible.

They are just chatting about the old trade system. The system was beneficial for the rich countries. America and Europe were making a trap for Russia with all economic sanctions they have imposed but clever Putin is turning it other way around!

It has started unveiling in a predictable way. Bulgaria and Poland will probably get gas via reverse from those countries, who are trading in roubles.

Vladimir Putin sent a message of greetings to President of the Republic of South Africa Cyril Ramaphosa on Freedom Day
“Relations between the Russian Federation and the Republic of South Africa are growing in the spirit of strategic partnership. The two countries have established a substantive political dialogue, as well as productive cooperation in the trade, economic, research, technology, and humanitarian fields. The coordination of Moscow and Pretoria’s efforts at the UN, BRICS, the G20 and other multilateral platforms yields a good return,” the message reads, in part.

It appears that all major buyers of Russian gas have accepted the necessity to pay for it in Rubles. I will remind - payments in Euros or Dollars are not really being transferred to Russia, they remain just figures on illegally blocked accounts, while converting them into Rubles by Russian GazPromBank means that Russia can use those money. It all is actually very simple - Russians are not going to pump gas for free... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_95yiXlF544

🇪🇺🇷🇺Russian gas will go past Poland and Bulgaria.
It will be received only by those countries that pay for deliveries in rubles.
If Sofia and Warsaw start taking transit gas from the pipes, then Russia will simply reduce its supplies exactly as much as it was chosen without Moscow's permission.
In this case, consumers of other EU countries will suffer from the arbitrariness of Poland and Bulgaria.
However, they have already assured that they will ensure uninterrupted transit of Russian gas through their territory for other states.
On the eve of Gazprom decided to stop gas supplies to Poland and Bulgaria due to their refusal to pay for it in rubles.

🇫🇷🇺🇦 FRENCH SPECIAL FORCES IN UKRAINE ?
👉🏻 According to exclusive information obtained by sources close to Gallia Daily, it is highly likely that French special forces have been deployed to Ukraine.
__
🔎 Earlier this month, two platoons of the 13th Parachute Dragon Regiment (13RDP) were deployed to an unknown destination for a 2-4 month renewable mandate.
ℹ️ The 13RDP is the intelligence regiment of the French special forces. It is specialised in unconventional warfare, strike guidance (JTAC), sabotage, the use of optical reconnaissance means (blackhornet drones, cameras) as well as HIV capture.
➡️ Several reports seem to indicate that these men were deployed to Ukraine:
↪️ The men left equipped with their warm CCE military uniforms (forest camouflage) whereas currently all French operations take place in desert or tropical areas
↪️ The group leaving seems to be deliberately made up of JTAC personnel (trained to guide strikes, notably with CESAR guns, which France has just delivered to Ukraine...) while usually most platoons or sticks deployed in Africa are made of CTLO operators.
↪️ All the personnel of the group seem to hold the Instructor CATI certificate for the MILAN and the AT-4 (two French anti-tank weapons, delivered to Ukraine.
↪️ The personnel left on a military flight to a NATO country, before being deployed to their final destination by land vehicle... while most french military deployments actually occur using regular Air France flights.
__
📌 All these elements appear to be unique to the Ukrainian theater, since the only other place that would fit would be Romania or Estonia, but to date we have not heard of any deployment of the 13RDP there.
📌 According to these elements, it is therefore highly likely that 13RDP personel are deployed in Lviv or near the Polish border to provide training to the Ukrainian army.
⚠️ This information has not been confirmed (nor denied) by our contact at the Ministry of the Armed Forces (MinArm). In case of a statement from the MinArm, we will edit our post.
