Russia and Turkey came up with a proposal to de-mine the waters, it was UKRAINE that refused to allow it.

Next time you post that, SECOND, please be specific and describe IN DETAIL "HOW". WITH EVIDENCE.

That should prevent you from posting more bullshit.




Turkey detains Russian-flagged grain ship from Ukraine

It is not clear where its cargo came from or how it was obtained, but Russia has been accused of stealing grain from areas of Ukraine it controls - allegations Russia denies.

Researchers at Yale University say the Russian economy is suffering massive damage due to Western sanctions, despite Moscow downplaying the effect. The authors claim their work casts doubt on Moscow's claims that the economy remains robust and that the West is suffering more through "a war of economic attrition."

Yale's team of experts used consumer data and figures from Russia's international trade and shipping partners to measure economic activity five months after Moscow launched its invasion of Ukraine. "Russian domestic production has come to a complete standstill with no capacity to replace lost businesses, products and talent," the team found.

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.


That was an interesting video, THUGR. If YOU haven't watched it, it basically said that if the USA/western world imposes sanctions on any nation that trades wth Russia "("secondary sanctions") then Russia's prime energy markets - China and India - will decide to end trade with Russia bc THEIR largest trading partner is the USA and they won't want to risk that trade.

However, he misses an important point when he says that China and India can always get their oil (nad gas) from somewhere else.

The big (unasked) question is At what price?

If Russian oil is taken out of the world market entirely, prices have been guesstimated to rise to $300/bbl (or more). That's bc Saudi Arabia is producing at maximum sustainable wellhead production, Nigeria is producing at maximum bc of political instability, and Venezuela's infrastructure is so degraded (thanks to sanctions) it can't increase production, etc.

That's the reason why the west hasn't lowered the boom on Russian energy exports, but is trying to keep Russia in the market by setting a "price cap". And that's why the west has limited enforcement mechanism to denying insurance to tankers that carry Russian oil that is contracted to sell above the pice cap.

Not only is the enforcement mechanism impossibly complicated to target, it's also easily gotten around by Indian, Chinese, and/or Russian (or other) -based insurances.

If that weren't enough, Russia has already presented its buyers with tough choice: If you go along with the "price cap" we will refuse to sell you any oil.

Seeing as Russian oil is CRITICAL in the current tight market, buyers will have to decide which they can forgo: an export market to the USA, or an energy supply.

This could be one reason why the USA and western elite appear to be ready to torpedo western economies; they might be thinking that if they can reduce energy demand that can mitigate the "oil price shock" that would be sure to follow strict sanctions. I persoanly don't think that the EU nations can politically sustain an imploded economy unless they resort to Nazi-level repression. But it's a complicated topic with conflictinginterests within and between nations.

WHEN, THUGR?

You've started an awful lot of infinitely-ticking clocks. Well, given enough time eventually some of your predictions might come true. I mean, eventually Russia will collapse but, yanno, maybe in 200 years, so can you put a time limit on your "predictions" please?

And, will it happen before the west collapses?
I'm personally more concerned about the USA's fate. If we take down Russia but pull the temple down on our heads, too .. what good does that do us?

PENTAGON Press Secretary Brigadier General Pat Ryder said the move was indicative of Russia's challenges in sustaining its invasion of Ukraine, which Moscow has called a "special military operation."

Last month, a U.S. official told Reuters that Russia's Iranian-made drones had suffered "numerous failures." The official said Russia most likely planned to acquire hundreds of Mohajer-6 and Shahed-series unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

Ukraine recently launched counteroffensives in several locations, including around Kherson, which Russia has occupied since early in the invasion. In preparation for those attacks, Ukrainian forces struck Russian supply areas, including those containing artillery and ammunition.

Officials have said Western sanctions are limiting Russia's ability to replace vehicles and weapons destroyed in Ukraine.

OMFG, how is this supposed to be happening?

Does Russia buy its weapons from the west?
No?

Our officials sure spout a lot of nonsense!

*****

So far, sanctions against Russia are only having a hypothetical effect. Despite the west literally stealing Russia's assets, the ruble hasn't collapsed, inflation in Russia hasn't taken off, there are no shortages of essential goods, and Russia is amassing foreign reserves like never before.

OTOH Europe is being stretched like never before, and the Euro is cratering. That tick tock should be reserved for Europe. I give Europe a year.

Why don't you put a time limit on YOUR clock, THUGR?

Wonder why your Trump died in November. Hint: he is extra-fat and full of bullshit, both of which Trumptards find to be arousing. Crude shipments to Europe averaged 630,000 barrels a day in the four weeks to Oct. 7, down from 1.62 million before the invasion.

The European Union’s latest round of sanctions, passed in response to President Vladimir Putin’s annexation of parts of Ukraine, include a ban on shipping Russian crude anywhere in the world on EU tankers -- an escalation that could greatly increase the impact on seaborne flows. The sanctions have also been revised to incorporate a price cap championed by the US Treasury under which, from Dec. 5, buyers of Russian crude could use European ships, insurance and other services, but only if the price they pay is below a certain threshold.

Russia has said it won’t sell its oil to anyone who imposes a price cap, warning that its introduction could lead the country to cut production, and its major customers remain unlikely to endorse the plan. Still, the existence of such a mechanism is expected to boost the bargaining power that key customers China, India and Turkey have over Russia for future purchases.

Flows to those three countries, which initially stepped in to fill the gap after European buyers started to shun Moscow’s exports, peaked in June at 2.2 million barrels a day. In the four weeks to Oct. 7 that figure was down by about 320,000 barrels a day.

It is Philanthropist Jennifer Pritzker, at left, and Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker, which proves what I've known since childhood: fat people dig their own graves with their teeth. Gluttony is one of the "deadly" sins mentioned in the Bible. I'm an Atheist with a Capital "A", but truth remains true because humans haven't changed in 300,000 years since the first ones. Too bad Trumptards don't understand how they shorten their lives with habitual seven deadly sins, despite 300,000 years to learn simple lessons.

Seven deadly sins list & Trump has all of them every waking moment:

Lust
Gluttony
Greed
Sloth
Wrath
Envy
Pride

https://www.bibleinfo.com/en/questions/what-are-seven-deadly-sins

These weren't called "deadly" sins for theological reason. Each of these sins will get Trump, Trumptards, and other fools killed in certain circumstances. Presumably the Russian Army has not learned that these sins will get soldiers killed in battle, especially sloth and pride, both which make a soldier not take precautions to survive.

Funny how the seven deadly sins don't match up with the ten Commandments, innit?

Not being a bible scholar, altho I was taught about the seven deadly sins I couldn't recall any particular place where they were written. It's not a list, like the Ten Commandments. According to the wisdom of the internet, the closest thing to a list is in Proverbs

Quote:

Proverbs chapter 6:16 through chapter 6:19...
Proverbs Chapter 6

16 These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:
17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,

Wow, SECOND, looks like you've hit the jackpot on these!

Quote:

18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
19 A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

Huh, you've pretty much done all of these, too. Oh, my!

But what does this have to do with sanctions and Russia? Bc, the funny thing is, sanctions seem to be destabilizng Germany in particular, Europe generally, folllowed by the USA. Russia? Not unfazed, but seems to be in better shape than we (the collective west) are.

China halts some Russian crude purchases as looming oil price cap leaves buyers looking for a bigger discount

Some Chinese buyers have halted purchases of Russian crude ahead of a price cap expected to begin December 5, Bloomberg reported.

Traders say they are waiting to see if the price cap allows for better deals on supplies, per the report.

Russian officials have said they would not sell to nations that adhere to the US-led price cap.

Russia's ongoing invasion of Ukraine is pushing out one of Russia's biggest tech giants

Yandex, Russia's biggest tech giant, wants to cut ties with the country, according to the NYT.

Yandex's parent company has concerns about the impact of the Ukrainian war on its businesses.

The exit could deliver a blow to President Putin as he focuses efforts on homegrown tech and goods.

Russia stands to lose its biggest tech company, which would throw a wrench in President Putin's plans to foster Russian-grown alternatives for Western technology.

Yandex, often referred to as Russia's Google, is the country's largest internet business best known for its search browser and ride-hailing apps. But its Dutch-based parent company, Yandex N.V., wants out of Russia because of the potential negative impact the Ukrainian invasion could have on its business, according to a report by The New York Times.

These sanctions are going to last long after they are lifted. Russia will never be the same. Most who will suffer have nothing to do with Putins' decisions yet without sanctions of this magnitude war is the only option left. It may come to that yet.
