Just President Donald J. Trmp's MAGA Energy Policy in action.

Selling Coal, LNG and Oil to Europe puts the squeeze on Russia.

Meanwhile...exports of Coal LNG and Oil to Asia continue at an increasing pace.

Did I mention the first OIL exports to India last month...?

Wait, I was told we were colluding with Russia. Now it appears we are colluding against Russia.

Oh you are in Ukraine. Im a former St. Petersburg resident. :) hope to visit Ukraine one day, but I hear Poroshenko is bad news and that Trump admin will stop short of providing weapons. Thoughts?

Just curious...how much more expensive is it to keep warm in Kiev these days?

Ukraine should convert RR to standard gauge. This would facilitate transportation to Ukraine from Gdansk, and bypass Straits of Bosporus should this be necessary.

Ukraine used to burn domestic coal for generating electricity. Their coal mines are in Donbass what stands for "the Don's (a river) Coal Basin", which hasn't been in the governmental control since 2014. Their power plants are tailored to use a specific sort of coal, and renovating to anything else would be very expensive while Ukraine is cash-strapped. So they still bought Donbass coal and would have liked to continue doing this until some radical activists pressed the government from doing this.

Now they have to import coal from South Africa and the USA, since a compatible sort isn't found everywhere and pay the transportation which makes a big proportion in the cost od this cheap commodity.

I can’t believe you can ship coal all the way from the US to Ukraine without it costing alot. I hope we are not subsidizing this with tax dollars. Can’t Ukraine find another supplier with all their EU buddies now?
