The German-Russian deal struck last autumn to build a pipeline under the Baltic Sea to pump natural gas from Russia continues to raise concerns in the Baltic States, Poland and Ukraine.
That's interesting considering as only ONE of those states actually borders the black sea.
The sort of folk who come out against this would tell America and Canada they can't have the St Lawrence Seaway

You may wish to brush-up on those analogy skills.

Perhaps you should take remedial reading and learn that black and Baltic are not interchangeable. After that, brush up on geography. After that, learn to control your urge to post on matters in which you lack sufficient comprehension.

OK, I'll do it for you:
Remember:
Black Sea
Baltic Sea.

Once again, in case you didn't get it (which is very probable);
Black Sea
Baltic Sea.
The Baltic Sea, is the Baltic Sea, it's not the Black Sea. You know, those are 2 different seas.

Once again you ignore the point that countries not on the sea in question have zero business discussing the matter.

Recently he claimed that Lviv still belongs to Poland and even lectured myself how to write the city name correctly. I used Ukrainian version like above, he claimed that only Russian version Lvov is correct. :) He is unable to provide some valuable input to our discussions, well Russophilia is not enough.

You know it's easy to forget which one considering how many Russia borders. I suppose when you only border ONE (as the 3 states in question do) it gives them such a sense of inadequacy they form little alliances of single-sea-bordering nations, even when they don't border the same sea.

At first I thaught, that you couldn't be so ... well .. naive.
But the "sea problem" showed me I was probably wrong.
Take a look at this map, and if you say, that Ukraine has to reasons to be worried about the Baltic pipeline, then .. well ... what can I say.

Russia strong !!!
To: lizol
One has to wonder why the environmentalists aren't screaming madly about a gas pipeline in the Baltic, that could lead to an oil pipeline?
To: lizol
No they don't, they have a pipeline of their own.
And the only reason gas wouldn't be flowing through it is if they don't pay their bill.
Unless they have some preoccupation with failing to pay their debts (oh wait this is Ukraine, the international version of the aquaitance always in need of borrowing something but never interested in paying it back) they have nothing to worry about. They are in NO WAY able to administrate over what foreign nations do with their natural resources.
Russia could decide tommorow that gas is too precious and they don't want to sell ANY of this precious national resource and there is NOTHING EUROPE COULD SAY ABOUT IT.
That is soveriegnty, Either you beleive it, or you subscribe to marxism or globalism which asserts that it's okay for some countries to strong arm others over what they do with their own natural resources.
