Aaaaan,, we are supposed to believe you , why?
Here is a question. Who funded or supported them? Without names, F*** off.
To be “fair”, Russian gas and oil exports have not dropped dramatically in volume. In that sense, their workarounds are working.
But, what’s not working is the prices they are getting, esp. for oil, and Russian gov’t revenue is now (Jan. and Feb. 2023) sharply down.
Russia announced they are cutting production in an attempt to firm up prices, but, it remains to be seen if that will work in the long run.
They attacked NATO, and an attack on one is an attack on all.
Who knows?
It's halfed owned by russia and a Euro conlomerate, so, it wasn't, solely, russia's.
Read that II cost $11 billion?
That wouldn't evven pay for environmental impact statements, here.
