“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
There. Gazprom bank. Thanks.
I'm experiencing a perverse satisfaction in seeing EU-weenies get egg on their faces.
