Hi John and Doves,
Here in the UK and Europe, we are facing soaring prices for gas this winter. Of course, sky high gas prices will have a knock-on effect on all other goods, food etc. Russia has entered the fray, telling Europe and UK that she can provide us with all the energy we need.....as long as we commit to a long-term contract with their new pipeline - Noord stream 2. This new pipeline bypasses Ukraine. Hmmm. Now which high profile family do we know who has business interests in Ukraine? Lucrative business interests. Oh, that's right - it's the Biden family. Here's a conflict of interests that has potential to light the fuse. The Ukraine is America's pet...and Russia knows it.
Russia is basically blackmailing the UK and Europe.... simply because it can. We desperately need their gas. You will find the short BBC clip in the link VERY interesting.
The plot doth thicken.
