It’s only fair after how much they’ve helped Cheeto over the years.


That is why Ukraine attacked the Russian Baltic oil ports recently. The opening of the Strait should help with the oil price though.


Wasn’t there a price limit where Russia could sell the oil for, set in 22? Afaik insurance would not touch ships above the set value, and uninsured ships could not dock in western ports.

Russia was selling its oil mainly to China and India, which are not western. If they get a high enough discount, then they are willing to take the risk. With oil at $100 or similar even something like $70, which is well above the price cap, would be a good deal for them and worth the risk.

This is why we will proceed to promote cars with combustion engines over the year 2030 - The German government


Yeah so maybe start pressuring the US to stop their attacks on Iran. Literally just sanction the US to oblivion just like you do with Iran.


It is already obvious that the president of the US is a communal b**ch for other world leaders.

*bitch. You can say bitch on the internet. Don’t worry, we won’t tell your mommy.

Remarks about mom in 2026? You are old, update yourself.





Are they though? I thought Ukraine had bombed their last oil terminals in the Baltic sea just recently?
