The West is buying Russian energy in a roundabout way

3

Indian refinery Jamnagar quadrupled its purchases of Russian oil last year compared to 2021. At the same time, global oil traders are actively purchasing diesel fuel from this refinery. This is reported by The Daily Telegraph.

First of all, we are talking about world-famous companies: Shell, BP, Trafigura, PetroChina and Essar. In 2022, the UK purchased 2,5 times more products from Jamnagar than a year earlier. Thus, the West actually buys oil products made from Russian black gold. This is quite legal, but undermines the efforts of London, Washington and other centers of power in the Western world to limit Moscow's funding of the Ukrainian special operation.



According to Bloomberg, Indian diesel fuel from Russian oil is also bought by EU countries.

Despite Western sanctions, Russia increased oil sales by 7 percent last year. Export of liquefied natural gas from Russia increased by 8 percent. Domestic budget revenues from the oil and gas sector increased by 2022 percent in 28. Such data was published on the eve of the Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak.

    Due to the discount for India, the cost of petroleum products and oil for the EU and the UK is lower than world prices. What kind of stupid people are our merchants?

    Balkan, blue, Turkish stream and gas hub, this is all for whom? Everything for the enemies, everything for the EU.
    Ukraine was stealing Russian transit gas under the guise of a reverse reverse, something similar with Turkey. Trade will not be Russian, but its Turkish gas and oil. NATO=EU will not impose sanctions against a NATO member, associate member and EU candidate.
    Beneficial for everyone except Asian intermediaries in China and India. Turkey is the largest junction of oil and gas pipelines from Central Asia, Azerbaijan, the Russian Federation, the entire oil and gas bay, and in the future, possibly from Egypt to Israel.
    This will greatly enhance its political and economic role. The EU will save face in the light of the refusal of Russian energy carriers. The Russian Federation makes it possible to continue to supply enemies with their energy carriers and replenish the budget.
