And looking around see the fault lines.
Regime Change Dreams it’s time to change your undies Neocons.
What were they fighting over?
This is what the Chinese are waiting for. They will be happy to send troops to make things go more smoothly.
One of the guys who covers Russian finance reported that the government is taxing Gazprom and a related company on the world market price even though the price Gazprom can sell for is capped below that price. In other words, they’re being taxed for money profits they did not make. My guess is the workers have not been paid and this has resulted in violence. This may be a case of theft rolling downhill.
As a matter of interest, Russia’s various companies are hiring their own mercenaries. This is probably to keep the various higher-ups safe from roving armed thieves and other issues you’d expect if civil society broke down.
“The love”? Is that what Western intel agitators are known as now?
Migrant workers from China probably. Russia is going to have its hands full trying to keep the Chinese out of Siberia.
And I’ll bet the see eye aye had a hand in stirring up this trouble too.
More Russian woes. That country is truly cursed.
Sounds like another ‘coup’ is starting. LOL!!!
The [Irkutsk] field was discovered in 1987. In June 2007, TNK-BP agreed to sell its stake for US$ 700 million to US$ 900 million to Gazprom with option to buy back a 25% plus one share stake in the project.However, this deal never materialized. In June 2010, Rusia Petroleum, the developer of Kovykta field filed for bankruptcy. TNK-BP also tried to sell the field to state-owned Rosneftegaz, but failed. On 1 March 2011, Gazprom bought Rusia Petroleum’s assets, including rights for the Kovykta field, for $711 million.
My great grandfather was a civil engineer and worked briefly on the Trans-Siberian Railway. Even in Tsarist times they would lock the foreign workers up at night.
Read something like this in one of Tom Clancy’s books...
“ All over Russia, you can just feel the love.
And looking around see the fault lines. ”
