That’s the way Commies work.
BiXiden is really not different from Pootie-Poot.
Now Putin is making enemies of Japan and India
good
What goes around, comes around…
Open an independent branch of Exxon Mobil in Russia incorporated under Russian laws. Then retain the stocks in the company so most is controlled by corporate headquarters.
Problem solved. Exxon can be happy and Russia can be happy.
Can’t they just make a deal?
...pass a law that would enable Exxon to confiscate Russian Oil Tankers anywhere in the world. Exxon provides money, Japan and India Navy Ships.
Gosh it’s too bad we can’t produce oil here in the US
A friend of mine was drilling those wells for Pootin and Exxon. He is back in the states now.
I have no more sympathy for investors sending huge amounts of money to fund operations in Putin’s Russia and losing it then I do for those investing in China, Venezuela, or another anti American den of inquity.
Yes, communism. All the talk about czars is a cover for the effort to rebuild another Soviet Union. Putin’s campaign of nationalizing energy companies continues.
Interesting new info about the bridge attack.

Details Of Attack On Crimean Bridge Revealed. NATO Appears Involved
Based on data from military correspondent Alexander Kots and official Russian sources
Two trucks were involved in the terrorist attack on the Crimean bridge.
The head of the Russian Investigative Committee, Alexander Bastrykin, reported to Vladimir Putin that there is no doubt that the terrorist attack on the Crimean bridge was carried out by the Ukrainian special services. Russian and foreign citizens took part in it at various stages of preparation.
“We have already established the route of the truck, where the explosion took place. Bulgaria, Georgia, Armenia, North Ossetia, Krasnodar… The carriers have been identified. With the help of operatives of the FSB, we managed to identify suspects among those who might have been preparing a terrorist attack,” Bastrykin stressed.
Two heavy-duty trucks were involved in this operation. The cargo were 22 pallets of plastic food wraps, 9 rolls each (one pallet weighs about a ton), that arrived in the Georgian port of Poti from Bulgaria by sea. The ordering customer was a citizen of Ukraine. Then it was loaded onto a truck with foreign license numbers. The driver of the first truck communicated with the ordering customer via WhatsApp. Further, the truck went from Georgian port of Poti to Armenia, where the cargo was customs cleared according to the rules of the Eurasian Customs Union. This is a typical, unsuspicious route for truckers traveling to Russia.
Then the trucks entered Russian territory through the Verkhny Lars checkpoint. The same one through which several thousand neoliberal Russians or common parasites fled to Georgia, fearing mobilization. The truck’s final destination was the city of Armavir, where the pallets were reloaded onto another truck, which headed toward Crimea. The second truck and its driver were blown up on the Crimean bridge.
The explosives were placed in rolls of plastic food wraps. it was done in such a way that it was not visible on the X-ray control, because of the multi-layer plastic.
This was apparently done in Bulgaria. Because it seems unlikely that bales of tightly twisted plastic food wraps with explosive material inside could have been repacked on the way.
This indicates that, in addition to Ukraine, intelligence services of NATO countries are apparently involved in the organization of the attack on the Crimean bridge.
The Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation reports that the driver of the first truck is already testifying. Most likely, like the driver of the second truck, he was used blindly and didn’t know what he was carrying.
Today, October 10, 2022, there will be a meeting of the Security Council of the Russian Federation. This state body of Russia makes decisions on key issues of foreign and domestic policy of Russia on security issues.
Bkmk
You seize my superyacht, I seize your oil field.
Globalism is dying, as nationalism rises. Putin couldn’t control himself.
When you shake hands with the Devil, why do you expect it’s all good?
Your buddy Putin’s decision will backfire because the only thing that keeps those fields productive are Western companies slant drilling and fracking know-how - technical stuff your buddy’s Gazprom minions oil workers do not have. When the Western companies pull out, down goes the field’s production and oil revenue with it.
Exxon already wrote down $3.4 billion in the first quarter.

So there is no further effect on Exxon from the seizure. They took the loss after the sanctions.
Some people never learn !!!
