  1. Letโ€™s all do what the Netherlands do and buy hikes and electric scooters. Who needs Russian Oil

  2. January 6th ๐Ÿ˜‚ all these black kids running through retail stores and we still so dead set on those fools. I get it they shouldโ€™ve been shot but cmon son

  3. Why haven't they ever capped food and every other life essential like medicine of I Forgot GREED

  4. China and India have the population to consume all of Russia Oil.

  5. Like capping food ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚who will suffer well whoever needs to eat๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚

  6. The ammount of paid Trols, propagandists and clueless tankies ranting nonsense on every single russian oil cap video tells me the oil cap is working.
    These are the same people/bots who said and still say, with a straight face, that sanctions on russia dont work, despite the fact that putin and the kremlin havent stopped begging the west to remove them.
    I cannot say that the oil cap is going to be as effective as expected, but i know that anyone saying it wont work as soon as it's implemented, is full of Bs, because they dont know that, theyre just making claims without evidence, and the oil cap already had a huge impact in the oil market. The same as sactions, we will see the effect of the oil cap over time, nobody knows if it'll do the desired effect yet, nobody, specially youtube nobodies (including me) who dont even use their real names while making epic claims of things they cant back up.
    Also let me clarify one thing, The countries that implemented the oil cap can remove it whenever they please, Russia has no choice on that matter, Russia's only choice is to sell or not to sell and not selling means both no profit and loss of future profit, but it cant remove the cap, thats the difference between power and lack of power.

    Russian officials documents, businessmen, members of the regime and banking system have been reporting about the negative effects sanctions have had on the russian economy both now and in the future, whenever you read "someone" on youtube claiming they dont work, understand these anonymous people are contradicting what really important people in Russia are reporting, who are you going to trust? i rather trust what the russian private economic numbers say about whats going on with the economy, and not youtube trols nor kremlin fabricated numbers, whenever they bother to report numbers instead of censoring them, they dont even report how many russians have died (updates) in the war yet, not even to the families, and they know when a soldeir dies.

    Some are claiming that Russia will just sell the fossil fuels to Asia and India and use "supply & demand" as an argument, well, the demand for those fossil fuels is in Europe, and it wont move out of Europe, Europe is getting energy from other countries that supply our demand of energy. So i wonder what these "economist" base their argument on? Who is going to replace all this demand? is Russia just going to create demand out of thin air? The reason why Russia wasnt exporting more energy to China and India pre-war was because there were no demand to begin with. That is supply and demand.
    But wait, it gets worse, the current excess of demand from China and India comes from the massive discount Russia is giving them, so Russia has not only lost its biggest customer (Europe's demand) but its also selling at a loss (supply) to countries that can store or resell this energy, but dont really need it. Thats not supply and demand, thats autodestruction and if we were talking about businesses instead of countries, everyone would agree that it is a ridiculous deal, the problem is Russia doesnt have a choice on the matter until the war is over, and even after the war, it will have to make a lot of concession to ukraine and the west, including every foreign business in Russia affected by the war. Or just surive living 1 century behind the rest of the world, north korea style.

    Also, the fact that a country can buy energy doesnt mean it must, theres way more important matters in geopolitics than just buying all the energy available, Europe and western nations' bans and caps on Russian energy is living testimony of this fact. Today China and India are buying russian energy, but thats not gonna last forever, and many new unfavourable conditions to russia might apply in the future (geopolitics) if russia wants that demand to stay in place, let alone increasing it to the same level Europe had pre-war. Russia is already selling at a discount, consequence of its own actions by invading Ukraine, experts dont lie, Russia will become China's ill lapdog.

  7. So many Russian trolls here itโ€™s funny. Desperation looks obvious Ivan

  8. BRICS will put an end to the Petro dollar.

  9. This is after America and the UK colluded to destroy the nordstrom pipeline verified by a text through secretary blinkin. Putin is being nice

  10. Zelensky is no better than Putin.
    Both are horrendous corrupt killers.

  11. I hope Putin absolutely destroys Biden, nobody deserves it more.

  12. Service economy vs a commodity economy? Who will win? ๐Ÿ˜†

  13. Russia has had so many accidents on oil and gas manufacturing and storing sites. This almost seems as Russia is looking excuses why they can't sell.

  14. this is exactly what he should have done before

  15. The west is still buying Russian oil and gas it just goes through another pipeline this time.

  16. Sure would be nice if keystone pipeline was still operational.

  17. Great news for alternative energies! In the short term this will hurt the west , in the long term Russia and the Saudis will be irrelevant. They know this and that's why they are pivoting.

  18. Wow wow wow good brother and sister TNX GOOD Family First good business ok thanks good Russia good Tnx bro good

  19. Did anyone really think this would work? ๐Ÿ™„

  20. EU USA are out of options for Russia

  21. Wait a minute!!!…. 60$ cap…. then why is gas still so dang high!!! Are these refineries the ones gouging Americans at the pump?? The fuel stations only make pennies per gallon ๐Ÿค”
    @60$ cap fuel should be around $1.50-$1.75 per gallon or less

  22. It's just bs. Russia is selling its oil to India for 48usd. So it's just misinformation on both sides. The EU has to stop buying Russian oil over the counter, while Russia pretends to decide who it sells its oil to.
    It's just comedy.

  23. Trump was better at business than America. Good job democrats

  24. Who didn't see that coming? ๐Ÿ™„

  25. Putin, nature ๐ŸฆŠ๐ŸฆŒ๐Ÿฐ๐Ÿฟ๐Ÿฆ”๐Ÿฆ‡๐Ÿฆฆ๐Ÿฆก๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฆ†๐Ÿฆ‰๐Ÿธ๐Ÿ ๐Ÿฆ‹๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ›๐Ÿ๐Ÿž๐Ÿ•ท๐ŸŒน๐ŸŒป๐ŸŒฒ๐Ÿ’ฎ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ…๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ„is so happy with your ban on oil exports. Always look on the bright side ๐Ÿ•บ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿ•บ๐Ÿ’ƒ

  26. Good news for China and India.

  27. well
    we are not "blue eyes blond hair and relatively civilized people" so we dont care your white on white war, but we love black oil and will keep buying it

  28. It is mostly symbolic? This woman is completely dumb,she doesn't even understand what's going on.

  29. Ukraine is toast hate to say it matter of time โฒ๏ธ

  30. Nothing Putin does is symbolic. Ukraine is no longer a sovereign nation. It's a wreck that is so rapidly emptying that teenagers, elderly and the disabled are going to be conscripted into service. It's ending.

  31. It is not symbolic because the world outside the west are buying russian oil and they will continue doing so using shadow fleet,Eu insuarance companies will die a slow death

  32. Wow big surprise. No one could have seen this coming.
    ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ™„

  33. ALL THIS SHOWS IS PUTIN IS NOT AT ALL CONSIDERING PEACE NEGOTIATIONS. HE IS THINKING ABOUT A WAR THAT WILL LAST DECADES. PUTIN IS A FOOL

  34. – Hey Germans, I wanna buy your new Mercedes for 1000$
    – N-no, b-but it's costs 10.000$
    – How dare YOU!

  35. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ this is the future. Get all western countries to cut off russia and russia will lose income big time

  36. I mean Venezuela is right there… we just have to refine it more!!!

  37. Sounds like $66 is a fair compromise!!!!
