Why is anyone surprised ?
Russia has never in recorded history had the rule of law. Putin is just doing what comes naturally.

Yeah, confiscation worked out so well for Russia the first time around. Shades of late 1920s New Economic Policy. Next: purges.

WOW!!! The company that I worked for supplied a lot of control valves for this project. I personally worked on the engineering of many of the valves.

By now we all know the real Russia and the security threat it represents. The only question now is what the UK and the rest of Western Europe are ready to do about it, if anything. Will they submit to the will of the Kremlin, or not?

The Russians are currently building a 136 mile (219 km) pipeline across the Tatar Strait from Sakhalin Island to De-Kastri on the Russian mainland.

A well placed small Semtex charge or a submarine with a drag line, in the beginning of winter would paralyze the oil production for 6 months.

Meanwhile we should support the Japanese claim to the Kuril and Sakhalin islands and condemn the Russians for the Genocide of the Japanese in the 19th century.
