I think America should borrow the money from China to pay Ukraine’s debts. After all, it only seems fair.

Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenuk said during a cabinet meeting. He added: "Russia has not succeeded in conquering Ukraine with military aggression, so now they are opting for an economic aggression." Ha, I nailed it weeks ago this was going to happen. Wait until the EU gets their new rates from Putin. They don't like it, he'll shut 'em off.

What??? Is this satire? The Ukraine gov doesn't get to choose what a nation they're hostile to charges them for stuff.
Maybe the thug government could sell eastern Ukraine to Russia to pay for their fuel.

What will the Ukraine do - tap the lines that Russia ran through it? Would that lead to a quick move to annex the Ukraine with "just cause" being claimed?
Russia is planning/running new lines that bypass the Ukraine and should be operational or nearly so by now - how long before they just stop supplying the existing lines?

Russia owes Ukraine compensation for Crimea and for pirating the entire Ukrainian Navy. They are no position to the claim moral high ground.

The new USA will draw a line in the sand, give a belligerent speech, and lead from behind.

Russia pays Ukraine to transport oil thru Ukrainian pipelines to Europe. Ukraine can raise the price of transport Russian.
A: no
To: Fennie
It doesn’t seem that Ukraine has much of a choice —
Russia has them by the short hairs and their only choice is to turn the thermostat down or go begging to Europe for money to pay Russia or raise the price of what they sell to Russia.
To: lodi90
Both the Crimea and the ships belonged to the USSR, until they were swindled out of it during the breakup of the USSR.
That includes all the nukes that were there.

I don't think it matters. Ukrainians soon won't have the $$ to pay for gas no matter what the price:
According to a report in Kommersant-Ukraine, the finance ministry of Washingtons stooges in Kiev who are pretending to be a government has prepared an economic austerity plan that will cut Ukrainian pensions from $160 to $80 so that Western bankers who lent money to Ukraine can be repaid at the expense of Ukraines poor.

Russia has a much worse Thug Government than the Ukraine. Russia thug government is one of the worst both now and throughout the last 100 years.
Russia's thug govenment managed to murder about 10,000,000 Ukrainians when the thug was Stalin. Putin's moral compass is no more pure than Joseph Stalin's.

Yeah, they reject the price of the gas now.
Get a hold of them next December and see if they've reconsidered.

Europe has the same problem...shutting down coal and nuclear plants, but failing to switch immediatly to windmills and pond scum. With pond scum in the summer and windmill power only when the wind blows what could possibly go wrong? Other than a European depression for example. But so environmentally sound!
