  6. 🙆‍♀To President Putin, congress of Russia and the people of Russia: When you do business and provide services to your enemies, you cut the services first, and then you ask to pay in rubles, cut the gas and petroleum now. You are too soft to good or to stupid, remember they want destroy the economy of Russia, now hear me, until you put their own people against themselves you are screw. Use your brain. This is your play Since EU had Russia excluded from SWIFT payment system early March 22, it is clear that Russia has to take other payment modalities for all of their deliveries. “President Vladimir Putin on March 23 says Russia will only accept payments in rubles for gas deliveries to “unfriendly countries.” Close the gas valves now, in ten day you will have all your payments in rubles, or the European economies will go down the toilette and they deserve it, the game the European Union is playing is “The pour Russian people are the riches we become” this is the time to give them a soup of their own chocolate

  7. bye bye Petro dollar Petro Euro

  8. Master stroke putin special

  9. If he wanted to stick it to the west he wouldn’t sell them any gas. They better pay in gold or rubles. Putin doesn’t bluff.

  10. Putin genius
    (C) next president USA 🇺🇸 Donald Trump

  11. He is making sense…he refuses to be suppressed,

  12. MIGHTY PUTIN MEANT COOKING WITH GAS AND USING OF GAS IS VERY IMPORTANT IN DAILY LIFE IN CHINA ALSO THEY ARE MAKING DUMPLINGS AND NOODLES FRIED RICE! NOT THE MILKSHAKE BYE ! 4TIMES PRESIDENT OF RUSSIA

  13. Why did you let si many blue at French Parliament and Paris Parliament. Did you translate in Russian what told deputies in blue and when socialists had Senate and power in 2015? Why did you invite Fillon politiciab and Gérard Depardieu in Russia. Sincerly you were right in some cases but I don't understand this.

  14. Lol only bet wetters pay in rubles. Lol.

  15. Rubles or Rubbles?
    Rubble is worth more than Ruble

  16. Maybe rossiya should stop export crude materials and focus to refine them to products. Such as turn gas to electricity then research the way to store it like millions of megawatt and export it instead.

  17. Gentlemen, putin is worth 400 billion USD. He does not care about money. One of his lowest oligarchs yachts which is worth 500 million, more expensive boat than any US business man has, got seized the other day. They do not care. They have been planning this and understand the repercussion. These men are old, lived their life in luxury selling energy to the same countries that are "paying" NATO to protect them. They're bored, rich and since money doesn't mean a thing to them, are looking for a legacy. Once u understand this, coupled w the fact that his family along w the families of the rich are in a 500 mile wide underground bunker complete with 700 maids/own power grid/mall/ even it's own aquarium with animals you will realize that these old men controlling policy do not care about money but more importantly do not care about your children dying in a nuclear blast. When power and money are at the peak, you're next goal is domination. Putin is at least, as we don't know, 2-4x richer than bezos, who is known as tbe richest American. Putin is KGB. He and Gazpron built literally an underground city for him and the elite. Ask yourself why?

  18. Europa und Amerika ist besser auf der Welt 💪💯

  19. No Putin ist The best Go German

  20. oops… Is it antisactions? oh no… is it true?

    oh lol.. I'm a Russian)

    P.s. Parmesan, khamon, wine and burgers.
    open a little secrets… We know to create this style.) A McTrump with cheese and another..))

  21. I'm sorry but why on earth would he accept payment in rubles of all things?why not other currencies or gold or weapons or raw materials or steel or rubber or food or supplies needed for war?

  22. Essentially this is Mr Putin declaring check mate.

  23. He is the only guy who can actually teach West that some other GAWD also exist.
    Putin Supermacy 🛐

  24. Here some bad new for Putin.
    Briliant Ukraine should spearhead all of Russia's resources & take them out see how the like it. I bet they will come to the begging for a peace deal. Matter of fact they would be putting all there forces in reverse corner him like a rat that he is.👎down with Putin
