Putin seeks emergency petrol as Russia runs on fumes

Russia has reportedly asked Kazakhstan to supply it with petrol as Ukrainian attacks on its refineries force it to import gasoline.

Kazakhstan has been asked to set up a reserve of 100,000 tonnes of gasoline, equivalent to 845,000 barrels, to supply Russia should shortages arise, Reuters reported.

I should apologize. I am home, a day off and I can't help but notice my beliefs, which are based on facts, are winning out on these threads. Therefore, I am having a lot of fun posting.

How Reagan and Thatcher would have defeated Putin in Ukraine

her-would-have-defeated-putin-in-ukraine/

Sadly, many Ukraine-supporting democracies have not done enough to wean themselves from Russian energy. For instance, Prime Minister Narendra Modi of India acknowledged that the Ukraine conflict is “causing great pain in the region.” What he didn’t say is that India received more than one-third of its oil imports from Russia in 2023, after buying no Russian oil before the war.

No free nation would have purchased iron ore or ball bearings from Hitler during World War II. Tougher sanctions requiring democratic nations to turn off the spigot of Russian energy are the first step to breaking the Putin regime economically and ending the war.

The second step of economic-driven victory over Putin’s Russia is boosting military spending. Thatcher increased the UK’s defense budget by 15 percent between 1982 and 1985. Reagan’s budgets proposed increases in military spending of 7 percent per year between 1981 and 1985. These decisions pressured the USSR to spend on its own defense at an unsustainable rate, and siphoned resources from the rest of the Soviet economy. Likewise, high levels of defense spending will pressure Russia to keep up in ways it cannot afford.
