It's time to screw Russia over

I do not want to see a return to power for Russia at all. Europe should act immediately to stop it happening.

Yes. Do you understand the threat posed by Russia to Finland?

I remember one of you Finn's didn't mind the fact that Russia would intrude into your airspace. Give them an inch and they'll take a mile. Don't sit around and wait for that to happen.

Also, Putin recently stated that cheap oil was a thing of the past. This reminds me of the energy scandal here in California with Enron. The State of California was almost ran into the ground through arbitrage. The same can happen to Europe because of Gazprom.

Boo terrorist!!!



How deep in the ground are you by now?

Since when has Putin been in charge of putting the price on oil?
Maybe you should be more worried about your own countrys intruding in foreign countries airspace, then maybe you dont have to wonder why,
when someone arrange again something simular that did happen in ny a few years ago.

Exactly, well said.

No one seems to have replied to what I said, ie, Russia has the oil, Europe wants it, what's the problem?

Putin has a lot of influence on the price of oil. Have you not noticed that he's trying to setup another OPEC style cartel? Russia will have more power to influence the price of oil regardless of demand.

Europe keeps getting manipulated by Russia because of oil. Europe pays up and then Russia uses that money to take over former Soviet states. Does that not seem like a problem?

No different to how the US and their multinationals have over the years used their power to get what they want.

Free trade, free enterprise and no government intervention, isn't that what you guys want?

Dont know about the OPEC style cartell, but the idea about a second market place for oil using some other currency than USD, i offcourse think is a good idea.
Most countrys has to buy their oil, everyone can not steal, still I think the price of oil is put somewhere else but in russia.

An Australian Euro. It seems that the further away from Russia you are, the more you're afraid of them.
