For a while is an understatemet. The second largest purchaser of Russian Gas/Oil is Netherland the biggest EU producer of GAS and OIL. Why is Netherland buying so much... To sell to other EU countries. Who is actually selling Gas and Oil to Poland and Bulgaria with immediated delivery dates, Netherland. Every oil and gas exporting country was pumping oil and gas at 94% of the total before the invasion and Russia was 17%. To do simple math where is the missing 11% coming from if not Russia. Does Poland and Bulgaria no longer buying from Russia makes any difference if they are buying Russian Gas and Oil from Netherland? The 2nd largest buyer of Russian oil and gas is out of the blue Netherland, coincidence? If we read UN updates, UN is asking for $1 trillion building fund for Ukraine after the war. How much of our Tax dollars are we willing send $1, 2, 5, 10 or more Billions as our share? Before we answer that, which two European countries was considered the most corrupt in Europe, yes Russian and Ukraine was heads and shoulders above the number three Belarous.
As some of you might have read in the past I served in the millartary and served in two real war in the same country Russian are now adopting our game plan. Civilians are given the chance to flee, and anyone left is an enemy combatant. We only bothered with precison boming for TV, after that it was carpet bombing. If you are in the city, you are no longer civilian as all civilian have fled. If you are found on block by block search than you are enemy combantant or saboteur. Fear the day Ukraine looks like winning this war as that is the day strategic nukes come in to play.
