Ahh yes classic russian doublespeak. The EU needs wake up and watch their back with Russia. Once you become dependant on their petrol then they can tighten the screws for political leverage.Reagan warned them of this before the USSR disintegrated. Seems like he was right.

"But he suggested no nation had the right to interfere in Russia's relations with third countries."

So Pooty-poo won't mind if we sell arms to the Chechens?

"Putin asked: "How can leaders of other states say it is bad for the Ukrainians?" "

I'll go out on the limb on this but venture to guess that it is bad because PUTIN SHUT OFF THE GAS THAT UKRAINE BOUGHT FROM TURKMANISTAN FOR THE SAME PRICE RUSSIA PAYS FOR IT.

"European fears of excessive energy reliance on Russia, which supplies a quarter of Europe's gas and is its second-biggest supplier of oil, increased further amid talk that Russia's state-controlled natural gas giant, Gazprom, was considering acquiring Britain's largest gas distributor and negotiating similar deals in other EU nations."

If Britain is smart they should block this effort. I'm all for free-trading, however, if Gazprom is not available to be bid for by foreign entities they should not be allowed to bid for foreign companies. Free-but-Fair trade (And not the "Fair trade" the eco-weenies are yammering about).
