When Vlad cuts off the gas to Western Europe because they refuse to pay in Rubles, things will get very interesting, especially if this drags on into the fall of this year.

Scholz MANNED UP and showed Pooty he would NEVER pay in roubles...

Zermany blinks.

Looks like it's Game, Set and Match for your "sanctions", ShizzPantz.

You forgot to mention the “for now” part of what Russia said.

“The Russian leader said money would be paid into Gazprom Bank, which is not a subject of sanctions, and then transferred in rubles to Russia, according to a German statement.”

So, paid in dollars/euros to a Russian bank not subject to sanctions, THEN converted to rubles.

Yeah, that’s a helluva difference right there.

It equates to the very same demand for rubles, but keeps Germany from getting their hands dirty lol
