No not at all, the storms halted supply for 48 or so hours so will have caused a few short term issues for 2/4 days but to say that the only reason we now have severe shortages of fuel due to the storms that were nearly 2 weeks ago is a complete nonsense!


As others have stated on here and elsewhere: their fuel suppliers told them they have no fuel to sell because the Russian boats are not allowed to dock in the UK.

all russian ships banned rightly so

2 russian wheat ships were turned away for the north east

all trading with russia should be stopped if putin succeeds in ukraine it will only be the start

prevention is 1 million time less costly than a nato russian war

Except it was the USA and the west that started it several years ago.

The west has been pushing for the expansion of NATO in Ukraine which Russia will not allow. The reason is that Russia is a major power, and major powers get to make demands of their neighbours when it comes to matters of national security.

Can Cuba host Russian missile sites if it wants? After all, Cuba is an independent sovereign state. Basically everyone recognises that, no, Cuba cannot do this. In fact, the US would probably threaten nuclear war before the first brick had been laid. (This is more or less what it did during the 1962 Cuban missile crisis.)

Can Venezuela host Chinese air bases, within striking distance of the US? Again, the US would simply not allow this to happen. It has long followed the Monroe Doctrine, which holds that foreign powers must not intervene in the political affairs of countries in the Western hemisphere.

Ukraine is a core strategic interest for Russia, as that country’s leaders have explained repeatedly over the last three decades. There are already US missile sites and air bases throughout Europe. But for Russia, Ukraine is an absolute red line. Attempting to bring it into the Western sphere of influence was always likely to have disastrous consequences.

What we are witnessing in Ukraine is a pushback against Western aggression in the form of the eastward expansion of NATO to the point where it now poses an unacceptable threat to Russia’s security. Putin had been nothing if not relentless in making this point for years up to this juncture, but his warnings and words fell on the deaf ears of those resolute in their belief in Western hegemony in the wake of the collapse of Soviet Communism in the early 1990s.

In trying to move Ukraine into their orbit, Washington and its European allies overreached and Russia’s intervention — firstly in faciliating Crimea’s reunification with Moscow in 2014, then with the official recognition of the independence and sovereignty of the People’s Republics of Donetsk and Luhansk, and now with a wider military operation to demilitarize and de-Nazify Ukraine — is the result.

As things stand, the West has been reduced to a spectator of the consequences of its own disastrous foreign policy.
