I was waiting for you to come up with that nonsense. Gazprom does not own the pipeline in Belarus. However, the original agreement whereby Lucas continued to receive gas at the lower price called for Belarus to turn over 51% of the pipeline, which Belarus never completed. That is the reason for the current conflict between the countries. Socialists, like yourself, see gas as a right, and without the need to pay.

WOW first time I hear from you this version. You always claimed that they gave up pipeline to Gazprom, shame on you if you deny your own words.

Taht is a bald faced lie. Belarus, according to the agreement for lower gas prices, surrendered 51% control of the pipeline to Gazprom in exchange for lower prices on natural gas. Simply because Belarus did not live up to the original agreement does not make it false.

You really do need to get over your East European socialist mindset.
