Gas illusions about Washington's European Union

"Nord Stream-2" is not a commercial project, and Russian gas to Europe without him enough: because there is Ukrainian transit, which need to continue to use, because it "works and works well." These are the words of the State Department's special envoy US Hochsteyna Amos, who appeared on the air after receiving the results of negotiations assistant Secretary of State Ms. Nuland with the Russian side. Nuland furious: Moscow concessions on the Minsk agreements not. After these theses, as they say among the people, "hoch simple and hoch - to fall." And that's not all: if you look at what the application then rushed to voice evrokomissarsha Federica Mogherini ...


... It should not be surprising. Just before the first and obvious picture is complemented by another couple of folding elements of the puzzle, talking about the true intentions of the US and its minions from Brussels.

It turns out that sanctions against Russia in the second half of the year may be extended: Ms Mogherini clearly amplifies the intensity of the rhetoric (more like a familiar blackmail), if received from its Washington patrons cheered signal fresh - more like a vigorous kick.

Why would such zeal? Well would be if Russia unilaterally pulled the tube to the shores of Europe, and then required to buy it "unnecessary", as claimed by the Yankees, gas. But the project "North Stream-2" involved the largest energy companies in Europe - but European Commissioner Mogerini desperately alludes to the extension of the anti-Russian sanctions. Moreover, Russia for the European Union, according to Mogerini no longer a "strategic partner" and "strategic state" - and the wording of how to understand? Known for its Russophobia US Senator McCain has once called Russia "a country gas station," so really derzhatelnitsa Brussels political weathervanes in their assessments tries to go in the same direction?

Expect something different from Ms EU Commissioner for Foreign Affairs is not necessary. Failure of the negotiations on the further fate of the Minsk agreements with representatives of Moscow for its mentoring installations, assistant US Secretary of State Ms. Nuland apparently told to pull on the Russian all the dogs, which will be found on the occasion. So try pozakovyristee hurt the same people who today at the arena - Mr. Amos Hochsteyn, Federica Mogherini, and others like them ...

Formally, the reason for such bold promises from States has. May 17 in Greece, near the city of Thessaloniki symbolically opened the stage of construction of Trans Adriatic Pipeline, through which Azerbaijani gas will fall to Italy. This tube, in turn, will become part of the Trans-Anatolian gas pipeline, and they are together, according to plans already approved by Brussels, the project will be functioning "Southern Gas Corridor".

However, the claim (to be exact - to dictate) that the Ukrainian gas transportation system must remain the only possible route to deliver gas from Russia to Europe - against the background of almost clerks "tips" the EU to diversify routes of energy imports from Azerbaijan and Turkmenistan bypassing Russia - is what it is called, already in any gate. Mr. Hochsteyn sure that it is right - because it "enhances competition." But for some reason he does not say that the maximum potential of Azerbaijan in the 10 billion cubic meters of gas per year is unlikely to cover the energy needs of the states of Europe and Turkmenistan tied for decades to come obligations to China. So who here who rubs glasses?

The problem here - not so much in the absence of effective levers of influence in Washington to Moscow on issues of further development of Russia's energy policy, as much in intelligence in the ruling elite of the political establishment of the USA. As far as it is necessary to be sure of success, with the tenacity to ram wishful thinking, someone else dictating States in full compliance with the policy of double standards clearly contradictory directives?

Washington is vital to break the continuing ties between Russia and the engines of the European economy - Germany and France. Of countries such as Bulgaria (which had already experienced in their own skin, "continuity" of the Ukrainian route), on Capitol Hill, and not remember: for them it is a puppet and "second class".

As for the confusion and vacillation in Berlin - in the remaining before the infamous Merkel leaving her post time window Washington tries to tighten the EU in bondage Transatlantic free trade zone agreement. To this end, the Yankees or by crook trying to "Provisional Government" Europe contracts for its LNG. By perdimonokl with France, to do it on an industrial scale from the Americans does not work: in Paris a few days ago already abandoned large-scale purchases of US liquefied natural gas - and punishment, by itself, is not far off.

It remains only one thing: to put a spoke in the wheels Moscow. After all, for obvious reasons, with the construction of the pipeline "Nord Stream-2" Hope Anglo collapse like a house of cards.

The day before, after the next meeting with John Kerry at a joint briefing Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov did not hesitate to note the sad trend: as soon as Washington does not get the desired - immediately with a bang heard talk of extending the sanctions or the introduction of new restrictions. The same Madame Nuland during a recent trip to Moscow, never tired of repeating that the sanctions against the Russian Federation may be withdrawn only after the full implementation of the Minsk agreements.

When such is clearly not the partnership approach - a method of pressure, blackmail and threats - "civilized democratic West" will not go far. But in the Kremlin in response to increasingly aggressive attempts of the West "dognut" situation in their favor more intense warning "partners" that engage in excesses - Statement will also be more expensive.

Before turning point in 2018, the West is running out of time and options. It is understood in Washington and Brussels. Therefore, Europe did not see any stability the addition of energy, neither peace nor tranquility: come and expect from the new pechenyushki Nuland, fantasy and old assistants Psakinoy positions.

And what they expected - if it is allowed to impose themselves in the same idols bearded transvestite ..?
