Putin's daughters targeted by US sanctions
I'm not exactly comfy with this, targetting peoples families rather than the people themselves. It strikes me as rather nasty. I don't agree with what someone does, lets go after his kids.

You'd be alright if you just touched her and not her front door handle.

Gazprom halts gas supply to Poland and Bulgaria as Russia accused of blackmail
I really do laugh at our medias take on things sometimes.
Russia is at war with Ukraine, The west is supplying arms to ukraine via Poland. Russia turns off gas supplies to Poland and the west has a hissy fit and calling it blackmail. WTF do you call supplying arms to Ukraine? Medical aid.
If I was Russia I'd have turned off the gas as soon as the west started supplying arms.

Given all the sanctions against Russia, the payments for gas supplies are probably all that is left to pay for their war. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

The sanctions imposed were sort of slow-acting or sort of boolshite. Blocking SWIFT. I think the Rooski Banks have their very own financial system. They only swift between the west and rooshia.
The MOST effective sanction was to have stopped buying Rooshin Hydro-Carbons. (And caviar).
But the poor Jermans would have been cold as they take.most of their fuel from the Rooshins.
As far as relationships between the west and the former Soviet republic of USSR is concerned, we are in effect at war with russia. (Without an official declaration).
We are at war and should behave as if we are at war.
Stop buying shit off the rooskis.
Putin will not back down. If he does he will be finished politically (or if there is any justice he should be).

I don't think there is justice in Putin's Russia.
Putin's Russia. The country effectively belongs to one man. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

German energy giant Uniper gives in to Russian rouble demand
Is the close cooperation about sanctions about to be undermined?
It seems utterly weird to me that we are buying Russian gas on their terms while basically fightng a war with them. Oh I know we aren't really fighting a war, just morally supporting Ukraine but WTF is the point of sanctions and then looking for a way to circumnavigate them.

Undermined?
It will strengthen the close cooperation of other countries about sanctions because Germany not playing ball makes it all the more important.
A slight tangent, it says a lot about Germany if they're more interested in being pals with Russia than supporting their EU comrades and being united in diversity. |

Pretty severe given Germany's industry relies on it to the tune of something like 50-60% of their energy, they having been dumb enough to shut down their nuclear power. But it's good fun to rub their noses in it ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017
