1. I posted the article start says Germany will wean itself off Russian gas within 2 years, you said not that it will take 4 years.

2. Now, you posted your own article that says 2024.

Is 2024, 2 years from now or 4 years from now?

Are you not agreeing with me since 2022 - 2024 = 2 years.

4 years from now is 2026

Do you not have to agree with me that you lack basic arithmetic skills?

How old are you gan sef? Are you still in elementary school or you need to go back to elementary school to learn your 1, 2, 3 ..

You are just too embarrassing, even going back and forth with you is disheartening..

Sad..






Until you first know the difference between oil and gas, then I can know you are worthy of being debated with.

Abio...

How hard is basic English to understand.

The article sef is self explanatory.


They found a way to pay for gas without violating their own sanctions.

Violating sanctions means paying for Russian gas with rubbles so to avoid violating their sanctions, they pay Russian Bank in Euro and Dollars. Converting the payment into rubbles is Russia's business, not EU business.


It's like me paying you for goods sold and you gave me your bank details to pay into with my Naira but you converted the Naira payment into rubbles and still want to claim that you were paid in rubbles when in fact the payment done in Naira.


You have to be mentally dubious and delusional to claim otherwise.

Even Russia won't say they are being paid in rubbles, just they ignorant people on NL and olodo Nigerian youths.



The title of the article is what is causing problem for the Lazy readers.
The content of the article is almost opposite of the title.

Russia gas is the cheapest for Europe.

Is either Russia gas or people go on the street when Winter starts knocking in Europe. Gas will be so expensive in Europe if they insist on boycotting Russia gas. Good news for ruble

When we tell these western puppets here that Putin knows how to play this game than sleepy joe and his lap dogs like Boris Johnson and Macron they say we are over rating Putin. It’s all playing out now. Putin is still keeping the Russian economy running and afloat even after the whole evil sanctions. My love for this man called Vladimir Putin is beyond this world.

I can recall how some mumus were rejoicing when it was the sanction season then against Russia.

The fools were capping crap. "Europe will boycott Russia", "Russia will only be able to sell to poor India and China"... grin

I was just looking at the muntulas. Even at the heat of the sanction, some EU countries were still doing backdoor deals on Russian oil.

Some nairalanders ehn, I dont know whether to say that sometimes una shame dey shame me, or that una go just deliberately let sentiment cancel una common sense.

Tell that to your masters the US that has invaded more sovereign countries and made them useless. E.g Libya and Iraq. Besides we still suffering from the British foolishness till date.

Who told you US and UK are my Masters?
Who told you that I applaud their invasions of other sovereign nations?
I repeat my prayer.
May you not lose your entire family members to invaders and killers.
Because it might take such huge and rude calamitous shock for some of you to have your brians reset to normal functioning and correct reasoning.
Repent of your wicked and callous heart by asking Jesus to save you from such heartlessness.

Underdeveloped brain cells and mentality are also major factors responsible for the idiocy.

the Z invasion has brought the real strength of the NATO alliance and EU resilience to bare, what we now know is that NATO is now divided more than ever, the EU are divided, India,China, Pakistan, North Korea, Saudi Arabia has changed the geopolitical balance in world trade powers and US has lost more allies in less than 2months since this war started,Russia has achieved their main objectives amid backdrops of dead bodies of Russian soldiers, Russia has failed but they have made some wins,very important is the demilitiarization of Ukraine, liberation of donbass, Luhansk and Crimea annex, Russia has made it clear to non NATO countries what they would face if they join NATO, but I think US has also demonstrated a strong resolve to protect its interests,

Both Russia and US has won in this game of thrones but the sole loser remains Ukraine


Your own opinion is needless and pointless and it practically missed the topic and what the EU is saying.

According to the EU, they found a way to pay for gas without violating their sanctions.

Their sanctions is never to pay in rubbles so paying in rubbles means they violated their sanctions.

So, are you saying the EU is lying and they violated their sanctions by paying in rubbles?

See, when you don't read and can not comprehend the very basic and even what the topic is about, you meander around, fabricate your own pointless opinions to substitute with facts.

It's their in black and white that they are paying in Euros and Dollars because they don't want to violate their sanctions by paying in rubbles.

You failed, I give you F-9.

oga what if Russia decides not to supply EU with gas, are they going to bomb russia? if Russia wants to do EU strong thing is to continue to hook them on till the winter comes then cut off their gas supply, Russia has all it takes to be ruthless here but doesn't want to tow that path, EU depends on Russian gas incase u don't know, is the cheapest and fastest way to get gas into Germany and france! whether EU opens account with gazprombank to pay in euros to be converted to Rubbles, it has defeated the whole aim of the sanctions, the aim of the sanctions was to cripple Russians economy by boycotting and blockading Russian goods from getting foreign reserves but when u go to the same Russia to buy gas it doesn't matter whether u re paying in euro to be converted to rubbles, u re buying Russia gas and that alone has defeated the whole aim of the sanctions, Boris Johnson is already in India to discuss alternative source of energy and to try to persuade modi from buying Russian gas!
Re: EU Agrees To Pay For Russian Gas In Rubles Without Breaching Sanctions by plaindealer: 4:25pm On Apr 23, 2022
Before making payments, EU operators could also make a clear statement that they consider their contractual obligations to be completed when they deposit euros or dollars with Gazprombank - as opposed to later, after the payment is converted into roubles, the document said.


This is the main crux.

They are paying in Euros and Dollars and even after that, the EU said once the payment is done in Euros and Dollars, their contractual obligations with Russia is completed.

Meaning whatever Russia does with the Euros and Dollars after is non of their business.

How hard is this to read and understand,?

If you have time to respond to him again, maybe you should try explaining to him that "weaning" doesn't mean they'd stop importing Russian gas but that they'd gradually start trying other sources. That means it would take 2 years! for them to even start trying other sources and probably almost a decade for them to be completely independent of Russian gas.
Europe is just trying to save face. I find it amusing that people are buying everything they say.

Nna, stop compounding your ignorance and inability to do basic arithmetic. The article says oil and gas.


We both posted articles based on gas, not oil, below is what I posted with the American president. it says oil and gas in 2 years, but you ignorantly said it will take for years and you end up posting your ignorant article that says 2 years, you effectively agreed with me that it's 2 years. You did this because you are either confused, too ignorant, and can not read and comprehend, or just don't understand elementary math and you can not count.

Btw, is the difference between oil and gas the reason why you can not do basic arithmetic or the reason why you think 2022 - 2024 means 4 years?..

The way you are going, elementary school sef go reject you.. grin grin
