Well once the 2 months wait is over - you may visit the EU zone and I hope enjoy yourself whilst you stay with us.

If the EU stops buying gas from Russia - then Russian economy will collapse without the desperately needed income - the EU will simply purchase its gas from else where - no problem, infact new gas pipelines are now being built to remove any dependency on Russia - soon the EU will no longer require Russian gas

No I fully aware and won't forget that Putin is a KGB hardman.


Remember Russia is a commodities based economy - very unstable

you forgot to quote from my post

Russian economy is based solely on a diminising resource - and you import 40% of your food - soon you will be starving


And when the EU turn off the financial taps as we use gas from Africa and Middle East Russia will collapse into the mire

I actually agree with that. That is why I am willing to be patient.



Ok. Lets take a look at your source:


Holy crap! Russia BARELY tops Italy's total? I had no idea that were that bad off.

You seem to be making a pretty good case for John McCain. Russia is, at best, on the very edge of the top eight.


What is your source for that claim?


And yet, is still worth more than Russian currency.

So if our's is toilet paper, what does that make Russia's? Used toilet paper? heh heh
