WORLD: Gazprom Cuts Gas Supplies to Ukraine
Now that Gazprom has officially declared that it will stop the flow of Natural Gas to Ukraine, Russia and Europe are waiting to see what Ukraine will do next. Will Ukraine make good on its threat that it will steal gas flowing to Europe? If so, what should the world do?
Knowing Ukraine, it wouldn't be surprising in the least if Natural Gas pressure dropped on the European Side of the Gazprom pipes. It seems only natural for Ukraine to steal that which it doesn't want to pay for. Whats worse is that Ukrainian citizens see no problem with this, and act as if it were only natural for Ukraine to steal gas, "Do they expect us to freeze?" Simply paying for the gas is out of the question, theft is much more lucrative.
The real question is what to do in such a case? A fair choice would be for Russia to protect it investment by using force. Russia should be allowed to send in its troops to protect its investment, the USA does this all the time. However, it is well known that if Russia attacks Ukraine, Russia will be labled the aggressor with Europe coming to the aid of poor the Ukrainians. So, why not force Europe to pay for the gas that was shipped through Ukraine, and let Europe deal with Ukraine?
Lets see how this turns out.
