Hello action, meet my friend, consequences.
Come on action, don’t act surprised. You knew i was friends with consequences all along. You two were bound to meet one day or another.
The solution is so simple ...
Independent gas stations are selling a liter of gasoline for 120 to 140 rubles, while prices in occupied Crimea and Sevastopol have reached 200 rubles per liter.
How much is that in real money?
120 rubles is 1,36€ 200 rubles is 2,26€
And you do need to keep in mind that the russian incomes are much lower than in Europe
To manage the deficit, the Russian government has initiated maritime gasoline imports from India
Why is India okay with fuelling Putin’s war? Should we be okay with that? Should we sanction India? It just seems like we ought to get India to be on the better side of history here, but not sure how to achieve that. It is a real shame that they don’t seem to care.
Modi gotta go before that can happen
India has always embraced their third world status (in the original meaning of the word) by trading with both the Western and Eastern block.
They’ll work with whomever benefits them the most at that moment. If they can buy cheap Russian oil, or in this case sell oil back to a desperate Russian president, they’re going to jump on that.
Just keep in mind that India is not an ally to the West. They merely are a partner as long as it benefits them, and they won’t let it keep them from trading with countries who you might not want them to trade with.
I wonder if they’re pissed about being gouged over the Admiral Gorshkov?
They care a lot.
About all the money they’re making.
A large amount of the crude needed to make gasoline in Indian refineries came from Russia anyway via the dark fleet, so…?
India has always been good at setting its own independent foreign policy without retaliation from other powers by virtue of its size, both geographically and population.
