If it is a deliberate attack, it isn’t coming from the USA, though.
The current leadership supports neither the collapse of Russia (an opponent of American) nor the increase in oil production and use.
This is all orchestrated by the US. Don’t forget that the US orchestrated the overthrow of the Russian backed government of Ukraine in order to surround Russia and provoke Russia. Now they are trying to destroy the Russian economy. The thing is Russia’s debt to GDP ratio is 8% whereas the US’ is nearly 100%. Russia has massive gold reserves and the US has none left. Russia can default on all its European $1.5 trillion loans and send the whole of Europe into a collapse and drag the world economy with it. This is not going to end well at all.
Really, What was Ukraine about then? Perhaps the geniuses in the State Dept. didn’t plan on Russia protecting their investment in the Crimea or supporting many Russian-centric people there. Current leadership is more like little kids provoking a chained dog with a weakened link in the chain.
The bankster(NWO) sociopaths want Russia off the international stage. As I see it, they see Russia’s resources as eventually their own.
