    the only reason why Russian rubles aren't at near worthless right now is because Russia has stopped allowing people to trade it by for example stopping people from taking out money from their banks and trading them for actual money that's worth money.

    As Russia began to construct the Nordstream Pipeline few worried about the presence of Russian Gas in Euro Markets. now that they have become capable of providing a third to around 40% and are finished assembling the Nordstream 2 pipeline, they could be capable of providing more than Half of Europe's demand for gas.
    The LNG markets seem to be looking at a couple hundred billion worth of investment in LNG and the US already sells some to Europe.
    The US Defense Budget now tops 750 billion and when we begin to investigate where some of that budget has been directed, we might notice some former Soviet Union Nations among the new customers.
    Some days I imagine that I am the only one who envisions a Stat Department schmuck who came up with a remarkable idea to tease Putin with a low budget Operation Barbarossa that provokes him to snap?

    Last years there is a police state in russia. Police against common people. We have no legal opposition, for ex Navalny is called extremist and terrorist.
    Now if we walk in the center of city with colors of Ukraine flag - police arest us. If we take signs "No war" - police arest us. We just afraid to go on main square.
    And our country is really big - what can we do if we live in Siberia or far East, much far away than Europe from Ukraine...
