nomoss Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 A pity the UK has blown all the N Sea resources in such a short time to enjoy the bonanza. Like a kid with a bag of sweets.The US keeps large reserves where they are - in the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powerdesal Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Taking an extremely pessimistic view of the present gas fuel shortage caused by Russia.........Isn't this the sort of thing that leads to a war?Not a nice scenario to consider, but brinkmanship by Putin could backfire if there is no early diplomatic solution. [:(]Thoughts anyone??????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolybanana Posted January 9, 2009 Author Share Posted January 9, 2009 He doesnt want that, but he wants to gain political hedgemony of the Slavic nations as well as the members of the old Soviet block. Behaving like this will cause a rush to find others means of supple so he does not have long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerdesal Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Maybe he doesn't want it but.....he may push that bit too hard and the situation could then get out of control and assume a momentum of its own. It could get very very messy, especially for the Russian border regions. Lets hope Putin can see the dangers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
