Russia will pay for the "gas war"

18
Any war brings destruction and leads to casualties. The outbreak of the “third gas war” between Russia and Ukraine over working conditions on the European market will have dire consequences for both sides. After the scandalous decision of the Stockholm arbitration in favor of Naftogaz Ukrainy, the Russian Gazprom began the procedure for breaking all agreements with the Ukrainian side. Alexey Miller said then that the Russian company no longer intends to solve Ukrainian internal problems at its own expense.





Despite the fact that in Kiev they see no reason to terminate the contracts, if the strong-willed decision is brought to an end, Independent runs the risk of being left without direct supplies of Russian “blue fuel”. Naftogaz of Ukraine hopes for reconciliation and a constructive resolution of the issue within the allotted 30 days.

For Ukraine, this gap will have the most dire consequences. They are trying to solve the gas shortage problem by reversing from Europe. But “friends” from Poland and Slovakia resell Russian gas to them at a price 4 times higher than Ukraine bought from “unwashed Russia”. For Ukrainian economics it faces a final collapse. Experts predict a further spasmodic increase in inflation, unemployment and a catastrophic gap between super-rich and poor Ukrainians.

However, Russians tired of the aggressive attitude of Ukrainians treated by propaganda are not up to gloating. As a self-respecting capitalist should, Gazprom will compensate for losses resulting from the breakdown of contracts by increasing gas tariffs for the domestic consumer. The Russians will fully feel on their wallet all the charms of the capitalist squabbles of economic entities. The inevitable increase in tariffs will further aggravate the problems of the stunted Russian economy, allowing, with a clear conscience, to forget about modernization, import substitution, the creation of 25 million highly qualified jobs and other “nonsense”. With high gas prices, production becomes uncompetitive, and you can forget about the increase in labor productivity voiced in past “May decrees”.

Everyone will pay for the “third gas”, both Ukrainians and Russians. Regretfully, it can be stated that these capitalist disassemblies could not have been brought up, if in February-May 2014 the Russian leadership adopted other decisions regarding Ukraine.

    1. **** .... it might not have been possible to bring to these capitalist fights, if in February-May 2014 the Russian leadership made other decisions regarding Ukraine .... *** - here could be more specifically defined. Personally, I don’t remember what decisions there were in February-May 2014.
    2. It is unclear why Gazprom should increase gas tariffs for domestic consumers. Based on the foregoing, this does not follow at all.
    3. Concerning the tariffs for the "internal consumer", that is, me. I pay 6.14 rubles per cubic meter of gas, 61.4 rubles per month. This tariff was established in 2014. And before that, every summer from July 1, the gas tariff rose by 5-6 rubles. In 2014, the price of gas on world markets was 2 times higher than the current one (too lazy to dig and look for exact numbers). And based on those high prices, the tariff was set at 6.14 rubles per cubic meter; since then the price of gas in the world has fallen by 2 times, but I did not pay 3.07 rubles. Consequently, exactly the same amount drips to Gazprom's pocket from me alone, in a month. And why is it necessary to increase something else?

      For you personally: while the incumbent President Yanukovych was on the territory of the Russian Federation, it was possible to return him to Kiev, giving security support. There is not the slightest doubt that in the event of the obvious military and political support of Yanukovych by Moscow, all the power and power structures of Ukraine would immediately return to the subordination of legal authority. The Maidan could be dispersed by a police rally. On this, the conflict would be completely exhausted.
      After that, the denazification of the Ukrainian authorities, the media and society was to be carried out. And the constitutional reform on con / federalization of Ukraine was carried out. Crimea by a decision of the Rada re-elected after denazification would be recognized as part of Russia.
      This could have been done, and has not been done. What has been done realistically: the Nazis are recognized as the legitimate authority, Russia is officially recognized as the aggressor, the Donbass has been washing blood for the fourth year, a NATO base is being built in Ochakovo, a law has been passed on the introduction of foreign troops into Ukraine. Industrial ties were broken, gas contracts were forced to be broken, family and friendship ties of countries that became enemies were broken.
      This is the fee for inaction February-May 2014.

        1. "" ".... it was possible to return it to Kiev .... Maidan could be dispersed ..... After which it should have been .... ... would have been recognized as part of Russia .... could have been done .... "" "
        And you need to write fantastic novels. It is far from the fact that everything would be exactly as you describe here. Karochi, history does not know the subjunctive mood. Everything happened exactly as it happened. And the point.
        2. Broken ties, gas contracts, family and friendships ....
        Ay, wei, trouble, trouble! "The truncated is gone, chief!" ... Personally, I have no connections there in the outskirts, so I will not vote about this.
        3. Are you talking about inaction? Let it be called that. But by 2014, our chairman had been the chairman for 14 years. And for such a long time it was possible to well understand and study his unhurried manner of doing business. And what could you expect from a person who has been doing things this way all his life - leisurely and not the smartest way?

      Everyone in Russia drowns and uses gas, one offends you. Buy a potbelly stove and heat your house, as today in Ukraine we switched to this heating method.

    If you do not understand this, based on the foregoing, you will understand this a little later on payment.

    In 2014, under the promises of the West, they once again betrayed the interests of Russia, and this, by the way, was GDP. The second stage of betrayal is the Minsk agreements signed with Western cheaters. How many times you need to get a rake on the forehead for the same thing that would penetrate. Now this is repeated many times in Syria: the West begins to yell when another terrorist group is threatened with destruction, then the same thing happens all the time: the cry of the West, supposedly a humanitarian pause, for regrouping, rearmament and replenishment of terrorist troops.

    If they raise the price of gas and other things in Russia, then the cost of production and prices will increase. Salaries are not very good. Contrary to official statistics, in Crimea, for example, the average salary in 2017 was 17-18 thousand rubles. Due to the low purchasing power of the population, overstock of production and stopping the production of goods may occur. In the States they said that if people do not have enough money, then they need to be dropped from a helicopter. Therefore, it is better not to raise the price of gas, light, water. There are state subsidies for this (or forgive debts, like Vietnam).

    "Increasing tariffs for domestic consumers" is a pure invention of the author, since no one has yet stuttered about it. The purpose of the provocation is to anger readers, turn them against the company and the authorities.

    What I personally did not notice was that they increased the cost of gas for domestic consumption and at the plant in the boiler room
    And the fact that Gazprom sold 20% more gas in 2017 to Europe more is known, which is why it is rocking. Scary. And what should prom gas pay to Naftagaz under arbitration? Then we will have to really lay out our hard-earned money. He also needs to finish building North. Stream2 and South. He essentially finances them himself, especially Turkish

    How much can Ukraine feed with its gas. Only one God knows how much they stole it from us. What worries us is where they will take gas. They know how to steal. To service this pipe, money is also needed, but the thread is not short and the whole load on Russia.
