COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN THE INDEPENDENT
Germany's industry and Russia's resources are a natural and
long-term marriage.
To say anything else is simply ignorant.
As far as the Skipal Affair, every well-informed person
suspects a complete fraud by Theresa May and Boris Johnson.
They've supplied no one with a scrap of real proof, proof of
anything, even whether such an attack even happened, let alone who is
responsible.
This is just a dirty game by May, getting herself some
headlines and relief from all the divisions in her own party.
Germany's government would have to be irresponsible indeed
to sacrifice energy security over Theresa May's game.
Indeed, one of the very motives in concocting all this
Skripal Affair may well have been hopes to destroy energy sales by Russia. The
motivating force for that would be Washington's dark establishment which has
always opposed, pig-headedly, Europe's buying Russian gas.
In that case, Theresa May has just been playing her assigned
part. She is and has been completely subservient to Washington and not much of
a leader.
