Better engineered tanks coming.
-
Still wont alter Russian goals . Still they will be achieved. Xerson Zaporijijie Donestsk Lugansk are already part of Russian Federation . Its a fait accompli .
Ukraine as a state you knew pre-Feb 2022 will seize being. Western Countries will go through inflation and wont be competitive any time near soon in matters production and technology.
Just as was post World War 2 , Russia will come out stronger more independent and will start cooperating with other countries from Asia, Africa and South America.
Just to add a single miscalculation might lead to an Armageddon Nuclear War .
Better engineered tanks coming.

Ukraine is winning but why do they need tanks from allover and everywhere? Does Ukraine have manpower and training to operate these tanks. Putin disarming Nato slowly slowly....

So Ukraine minus the flanks can now join EU and NATO. I think we have a peace deal. Western Nations will be happy to hand over few fringes and take over the rest of Ukraine.
-
Putin will be lucky to hold on 50% of the Ukraine he is now occupying. The Western allies might just let him go with it, but the Ukrainians will not give up.
Now that the energy crisis is slowing coming to an end, Putin's options will be minimal.
China is too busy fighting the corona virus and has serious economic issues and does not need a long term war at its doorstep.

Yes western europe/americans/NATO are clear winners.
From summer - Ukraine have been kicking arse.
Energy decoupling has successfully happen - now gas and oil in middle of winter - are cheaper than pre-war.
And permanently Russia gas/oil is now cut off. They now have to depend on China and India - who will crumble at combine NATO force.

The Western Ukrainians who ideally are Polish Ukrainians are better suited to be under Polish Ruleand by extension EU . Putin has been vocal on that and has no issue at all with it. Thats where they were before part of it came to ask assistance from their cousins and were later annexed by Russian Empire and Stalin extended the annexation during World War 2 and after.
Having said that Putin and Russian elite wont let them go with Historical Russian lands the NovoRussia or New Russia in English which Carherine the Great waged War to get from Turks or Ottoman Empire.
If you know history you would know prior to World War 1 same thing happened Germany were to use Ukraine as their bread Basket and Western Ukraine were to get aid and financial help from Germany . As for the Current Eastern and Southern Ukraine it has been the most industrialized and most productive part of Ukraine .
The more Ukraine is being lied by the Western nations the more they will loose more regions .

Nobody want to be part of Russia except by force.
Everyone including Russian want to live in London, Paris, Berlin and the rest.
That is genesis of this war.
Ukrainian feel their economic future lies in EU.
Not in backward Russia.
Who cares about land in 21st century? Old Russia? Who gives a damn. Russia already occupy 10% of the world.
What people cares about are jobs - money - wealth - progress - technology.
Things not available in 3rd world Russia.
If today Ukraine is split into two - and people given two hours to shift - half of eastern and southern ukraine population will move out to west.
More like west -east german.
Modern man is not concerned with history - but future. Catherine who the hell - will not give russian new cars, new houses, new iphones, new holidays, better nutrition, great schools, great hospitals, great cities.

Stop buying the propaganda . Its a fait accompli Donabass Zaporijijie and Xerson are part and parcel of Russian Federation .
Any negotiations will have to accept this new reality .
Energy crisis is not going anywhere soon . Industries and factories have closed in europe rendering people jobless and their product expensive and can compete in theninternational markets. Electricity for almost a century is being rationed in Europe.

Gripped by an energy crisis, Europe is in power-saving mode. In several countries measures are being taken to reduce consumption, such as in Belgium, where people are taking part in the SlowHeat experiment, to see how they can cope without central heating.
The motto of the project is: heat the body, not the room. However as Grégoire Wallenborn, a participant in the SlowHeat experiment says, it tests one’s mental fortitude.
"There are issues of habit that are both physiological and mental," he says. "And that means that we can put up with things that we never thought we could before. But you have to go gradually, each at his own pace. There is no universal recipe."
Elsewhere, methods to cope with fuel poverty are more conventional. In Tonnerre, in central France, local officials are handing out duvets to people, especially pensioners and those on low incomes.
It's an increasing problem in the country. Spared for most of this year from rising electricity and heating costs, the state-run energy giant EDF has announced a price increase in tariffs of 15% for consumers.

Germany’s Energy Crisis Is a Cue to Chop Wood and Stock Up
The high cost of natural gas and electricity is prompting many to prepare for outages and shortages. For some, it’s been a way of life for years.

Tightly stacked cords of wood line the side of a couple’s home in southern Germany, while another family farther north has lined their basement with shelves stacked with pasta, rice, cooking oil and cans of chickpeas, lentils and tomatoes.
In central Germany, a man long wary of relying on the government has ensured that he can make it through weeks without power or heat; he’s filled his attic with coolers to hold food, along with a camping stove, gas canisters and solar power equipment to keep the lights on and stay connected online. Others brave the chilly waters of a local lake for a daily dip, forgoing a hot shower at home.
Across Europe’s largest economy, people are stocking up and battening down. Even as the authorities publish lists of essential items to prepare for power outages or natural gas rationing, many Germans are taking matters into their own hands to ensure that they have a warm home and food on the table through the winter.
A majority of Germans, a full 60 percent, trust their government, according to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. But with a seemingly endless barrage of Russian-fired missiles falling on Ukraine, helping to send prices for energy and food at home soaring, many Germans have decided that if faced with the worst, they might be on their own. They want to be prepared.

Mr. Bäumler splits logs into firewood for the stove that he uses to heat his home. Germans are increasingly turning to alternative fuels amid fears of outages or natural gas rationing.
Leo Bäumler spends his afternoons splitting logs from trees that he fells in a forest that is owned by his sister, near his home near Weiden, in the southern state of Bavaria. He stacks them in his woodshed until he feeds them into the stove in the kitchen of the low-slung house where he grew up.
While thousands of people across Germany have reopened sealed-off fireplaces and installed wood-burning stoves to avoid burning natural gas, which doubled in price over the past year, Mr. Bäumler heats his rooms, boils water for his morning coffee and bakes pizza with his wood-burning stove as ever.

Years ago, he recalls, his father refused to install a gas-fired central heating system, back when the first pipelines reached his home region, connecting Siberian gas fields with then-West Germany, across the Iron Curtain. For decades, natural gas piped in from Russia was abundant and cheap. Half the homes in Germany use gas for their heating.

Even before the Russian army invaded Ukraine in February, flows of Russian gas had started to dwindle, causing the wholesale price to more than double. But German leaders, citing the reliable deliveries since the Soviet era, refused to believe that President Vladimir V. Putin would deprive Europe of gas in retaliation for the European Union’s support for Ukraine. Many Germans, though, whose bills were already beginning to soar at the end of 2021, began to prepare.
By the time Russia had made their first cut to gas deliveries in late spring, the government began floating the idea that Germans might have to face rationing come winter. That sent many people to heating supply stores to purchase wood stoves, and since then the price of cords of wood and wood pellets has jumped by more than 87 percent compared with 2021.

But Mr. Bäumler hasn’t noticed.
“Since I live in the middle of the forest in eastern Bavaria, surrounded by trees,” he said, “I don’t have to worry that I will run out of wood.”

While some Germans are readying for an eventual blackout or gas stoppage, still others are focusing on ways to conserve energy. The country’s economy minister, Robert Habeck, became the butt of jokes over the summer when he encouraged Germans to take shorter, cooler showers.
Gregor Ranz and his friends didn’t need the encouragement. Every morning between 8 and 9, they meet to skinny dip into a lake in the Wedemark district, north of Hanover. They have been holding their morning ritual since well before the energy crisis — even when the temperatures dip below freezing.
Although the gathering is social as well, Mr. Ranz said that once the energy crisis set in, it made more sense. Bathing nude — common in much of Germany — each morning served as effectively taking the cold shower approach to the extreme.

“I shower once a week, when I go to the sauna,” he said. “Of course I have a shower at home, but I don’t use it. A washcloth works just fine.”
Making Connections
Image
Bernd Sebastian uses less natural gas now that he’s connected a wood stove to his boiler.
Bernd Sebastian has relied on a 25-year-old gas furnace to power the boiler that provides warm water and heating for his home. When the price of gas began to rise, he upgraded his furnace, but he also hooked up his wood-burning stove to heat the water in his main boiler.
“We sit in front of our fireplace every day, and it warms the water in my boiler and the heater draws from that,” he said. When the fireplace is off, the gas furnace kicks in.

He said that he contemplated getting a heat pump, which draws warmth from the air. “That would be ideal, but that runs on electricity and with power prices going up, it wouldn’t save me money unless I installed solar panels, which is another outlay.”

Mr. Sebastian gathers wood from a nearby forest that is managed by a friend who alerts him when trees have fallen or been felled. Then he gathers it up and brings it home to be split and stacked.
Since last year, he has been stocking up, stacking it in every patch he can find in and around his home, including some outdoor space used by his wife, Roswitha. At 76, he’s worried that he might not be able to keep enough of it chopped and ready to keep their fireplace going and avoid using gas.

“I’ve had to steal two flower beds from my wife,” he said. “And the third is up for discussion.”
Leaving the Grid
Image
To deal with power outages, Bernward Schepers has folding solar panels and a battery.
Bernward Schepers did not wait for the government to begin urging citizens to stock up on nonperishable food and 20 liters of water per person. For months, he has been collecting supplies and pivoting his heating and power away from fossil fuels.
“Thank God I bought a wood-burning stove years ago,” he said. Over the past year, he has acquired an electric heater and a large battery with portable solar panels that can be folded out to generate energy.
More and more Germans were drawn to solar energy in 2022. The amount of power generated from solar panels increased by one-third in the first part of the year, amid fears of potential blackouts.

“If we were to lose electricity, that way at least we can power some of the small things and keep the food in the refrigerator from spoiling,” he said. “I also bought a small stove with a gas canister, so that if needed we can cook.”

When he first talked of readying for the worst, Mr. Schepers’ son, Bastian Schepers, rolled his eyes. For a while, his family poked fun at his preparations. Not anymore.
He also has been sharing his knowledge with colleagues and friends, who have approached him for advice.

“You just have to make sure that you always have your food stocks up to scratch, that you have enough there,” Mr. Schepers said. “Then you are good, whatever happens.”
The Stockpilers

It was the first Covid lockdowns that sent the Arndt family into preparation mode. “It started with toilet paper,” said Lars Arndt, who lives at home with his parents, brother and grandfather in Johannesberg, southeast of Frankfurt.
That was when his mother, Claudia Arndt, decided they needed to turn their basement, where the family had stored a variety of things, including some nonperishable items like jam and tinned vegetables, into a storage unit. As the lockdowns in Germany progressed in 2020 and 2021, the family began stockpiling more items, adding flour, pasta and a tank holding 100 liters of drinking water.
ADVERTISEMENT
They also changed the way they heat the house. After years of relying on a gas-fired furnace for central heating, this winter they reverted to their main wood-burning stove which only heats the dining and living rooms on the main floor of the house. The other rooms are unheated.
“We have been thinking more and more,” he said, about “what we can do to make sure that we are able to provide for ourselves.”
“We don’t want to be dependent on others for what we need,” he added. “But to be able to take things into our own hands.”

https://sputniknews.com/20230114/top-lng-producer-qatar-predicts-return-of-russian-gas-to-european-market-within-five-years-1106317033.html
Gas prices began creeping up in 2021 amid underinvestment in production and fierce competition for limited supplies between European and Asian markets. The supply crunch was exacerbated in 2022, as European countries began rejecting gas from Russia – which accounts for 15 percent of global natural gas output – over the security crisis in Ukraine.
Global instability in natural gas prices and availability won’t be going anywhere in the near term, and Russia will inevitably resume supplying Europe to restore a sense of equilibrium to energy markets, Qatar’s energy minister has indicated.
“It’s going to be a volatile situation for some time to come. We’re bringing a lot of gas to the market, but it’s not enough,” Qatari Energy Minister Saad al-Kaabi said, speaking at an energy forum on Saturday.
Al-Kaabi explained that global energy supply troubles actually started some time before the Ukraine crisis, “where the lack of investment in the oil and gas sector caused really a shortage in gas. And ahead of the Ukraine crisis, the oil and gas prices obviously were clearly going higher due to lack of supply. That lack of investment was driven by many factors, including the bigger push for the green [energy] without having a real plan in how the transition was going to happen. So there was a scarcity of investment over about 5-6 years, and then when the Ukraine situation happened, a big volume was taken out of the market and obviously that would take [prices] even further up.”
Al-Kaabi predicted that the next couple of years would be difficult for Europe, notwithstanding the reprieve granted amid a milder-than-usual winter for much of the region.
“The issue is what’s going to happen when they want to replenish their storages this coming year and the next year. There isn’t much gas coming into the market until 2025, 2026, 2027,” al-Kaabi warned.
The shortages would also mean higher prices, the Qatari official said.
“Prices are a factor of supply-demand. I think some people think that we are very happy for high oil prices and so on. The biggest worry that we would have as oil and gas producers is demand destruction. And you can see that there is demand destruction, whether it’s gas or oil,” he said.
Al-Kaabi also took a jab at Western countries who spent recent years condemning the use of coal for energy on environmental grounds, but turned to the highly polluting resource themselves amid the energy crunch, pointing out that “all the countries that were calling for coal to be stopped are using it at record levels today.”

South African Envoy to Russia Blasts Germany's 'Double Standards' Amid Calls to Resume Coal Mining
11 December 2022, 07:15 GMT
Buyers Want to Have Their Cake and Eat It Too
Also speaking at the conference was UAE Energy Minister Suhail al-Mazrouei, who echoed al-Kaabi’s concerns about lack of financing in oil and gas, and a basic “lack of understanding what is the future for many countries when it comes to energy strategy – what contributions or what percentages they would have of gas or even the pace of reducing their coal.”
“It’s not clear…And that unclear long-term strategy by many countries put them in a situation where it’s very difficult for them to commit for long-term gas contracts, which has in return made the companies of those who are developing the gas at a very difficult position with their financiers, because they would like to see long-term contracts, and those long-term contracts are not there. Everyone wants to buy, but they want to buy over a two or three year span. And that is not enough for someone to develop gas,” al-Mazrouei said.
Addressing the energy shortages caused by European countries’ politicized decision to reject gas supplies from Russia, the UAE energy minister said the supply crunch was the natural outcome of these policies.
“Of course Russia is a major producer of gas and LNG, and when you shift from one location to another trying to adjust, that takes time. And that’s what happened in 2022 when some of that [Russian] gas had been relocated to another market, and other gas from other markets [was] coming to Europe, especially from the US. But is that sustainable in the longer run? I think you would need more collaboration between the European nations on agreeing on the optimization of the FSRUs [floating storage regasification units, ed.] that are also limited, and also agree on some pipelines. I think that one of the things that contributes to energy security is pipeline gas,” al-Mazrouei said.
Al-Kaabi expressed hope that an “equilibrium” in global energy markets could be achieved after “some kind of a mediation” over Ukraine between Russia and the West, “and the sooner the better.”
“This situation will not last forever, and I understand that the Europeans today are saying there’s no way we’re going back to Russian gas. We’re all blessed to be able forget and forgive, and I think things get mended with time,” the minister said.
Al-Kaabi clarified that he doesn’t expect countries who relied on Russia for 50, 80, or 100 percent of their gas to return to these same levels of dependence, but emphasized that Russian deliveries will inevitably resume. “They will diversify and they’ll learn from that situation and probably have a much bigger diversity [of supply]. But the Russian gas is going to come back in my view, to Europe. Is it next year, is it in five years, I don’t know, but once this situation is sorted out, and that I think will be a big relief to the whole gas sector, and to the whole market in Europe and will stabilize prices.”

Hypocrisy on Africa’s Energy Needs
Al-Kaabi also addressed the historic underinvestment in energy resources in Africa by Western countries, the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund on the grounds that they failed to meet the criteria of the global green agenda.
“We need growth. One billion people today are deprived of basic electricity that we all enjoy. So we need to be fair. And I think one point I’d like to just add to that on the investment side: it’s very, very unfair of some in the West to say that African countries should not invest in oil and gas and they should remain green or whatever you want to call it while this is God-given wealth that they can create for their national growth for their national growth and for their prosperity, and it is oil and gas that is needed for the world,” the minister said.

Western-imposed Green Agenda Would ‘Cripple’ Africa’s Energy Security, Energy Expert Warns
1 October 2022, 14:58 GMT
Qatar is the world’s fifth-largest producer of natural gas, and the second-largest exporter of liquefied natural gas after Australia, exporting over 106 billion cubic meters in 2021, behind Australia’s 108.1 billion. Doha has announced plans to invest some $45 billion in its maritime fields to more than double production by 2027. The Gulf state ramped up gas exports to Europe through 2022, but warned its European partners that supplies are limited, as much of the new production capacity being brought online has already been reserved by Asian clients.
Russian natural gas deliveries to Europe plummeted last year, with Moscow accusing the Royal Navy of blowing up the Nord Stream gas pipelines running through the Baltic Sea and their combined 110 billion-cubic-meter annual transit capacity. Poland shut down overland pipeline gas deliveries via the Yamal-Europe pipeline. Flows to Europe are now limited to supplies sent through the Soyuz pipeline network, which runs through Ukraine, but have been restricted to between 35 and 43 million cubic meters of gas per day.

The energy crisis is over.Russia miscalculated almost on all fronts.Global economic recovery is underway

Energy crisis is different from Energy prices stabilizing Pundit , Energy crisis will take years to overcome and Russia will be a solution in that.
Prices have stabilized due to incentives by EU which included pumping $700 Billion as incentives, undoing some of the precious things like going back on using Coal and reviving nuclear plants . Other measures included shitting down factories and rationing electricity. Now coupled with a warm winter . All these are short term measures and are not sustainable .
As you have seen above the Energy crisis is in for a long haul . EU will need to pump another $700 billion this which these money could have gone to other use.
Pundit stop the all I know attitude bolstered by biased brainwashing western media .

No one has monopoly of any thing . Talking of Mozambique exporting gas to Europe , they will export it as expensive LNG . Russian gas was very cheap for Europe the reason they got a competitive edge on products which made them become massive producers and sellers of products and inturn invest on innovations and be years ahead of competitors .
Now it will be the reverse products will be expensive and they will lose competitive advantage in addition they wont be able to invest in innovation.
Rationing of energy and closing of factories means job losses and reduction of production which inturn will have an effect on foreign income.
RV you pretty much dont know what is happening . There is a change of world order happening . Same like it happened pre World War 1 and post World War 2.
In 10 years time you will decipher and conclude Putin had a plan and knew what he was doing.
Meanwhile continue getting erections from Western Media propaganda . Mozambique gas my foot…..
Energy crisis is different from Energy prices stabilizing Pundit , Energy crisis will take years to overcome and Russia will be a solution in that.
Prices have stabilized due to incentives by EU which included pumping $700 Billion as incentives, undoing some of the precious things like going back on using Coal and reviving nuclear plants . Other measures included shitting down factories and rationing electricity. Now coupled with a warm winter . All these are short term measures and are not sustainable .
As you have seen above the Energy crisis is in for a long haul . EU will need to pump another $700 billion this which these money could have gone to other use.
Pundit stop the all I know attitude bolstered by biased brainwashing western media .

Europe are and were willing to pay small temporary price for long term peace and stability when dictatorship like Russia is overthrown - and they get an even more expanded market in Eastern Europe.
That is why nobody is listening to Putin threats anymore.
Now with mild winters - Europe get another year to secure their long-term energy needs away from Russia - from Africa and middle east - and even the US.
Biggest beneficiary in long run including Tanzania, Mozambique, Nigeria, Algeria, Morroco and Egypt - who will provide natural gas to Europe and fertilizer to the world.
Meanwhile Putin has been getting his arse kicked since summer - and is trying to secure a victory over a dead city. Yes after 10yrs of civil war and economic turmoil in Russia - you'll finally understand that war ended in KIEV in 72 hours Putin failed to win it.
Now we are back to protracted costly civil war with Ukraine getting arms from NATO while Russia will get more and more sanctions to cripple it economically.
