EU essentially banned Russia from using any oil tankers that aren't their own with the EU reinsurance ban. Russia only has 50 oil tankers.
EU used to import nearly 1 billion barrels a year. Sanctions made Russian crude toxic and only the big boys who can weather the pressure remain as prospective customers: India and China. Their Russian oil import is entirely seaborne and the tankers depart only from the Baltic and Black Seas. The journey from there to India or China is approximately 40 days. So a tanker can only make 4 such journeys in a year. Oil tankers hold below 0.5 million barrels of oil. So 1 oil tanker can deliver less than 2 million barrels a year.
Russia can only deliver 100 million barrels a year with their own meager fleet of tankers. Oh, and they will receive no maintenance either! Unless we envision Russia as a vassal of China with no own stuff and everything made in and dependent on China.
this special military operation gets more and more braindead seeming by the day. wtf is putin's endgame? even if he is 100% justified in the invasion, what's the exit strategy?

>Russia typically shipped oil to Europe via Aframax tankers that carry about 600,000 barrels on round-trip voyages of roughly two weeks. Those ships are not big enough to efficiently make the longer voyage, which requires so-called Very Large Crude Carriers (aka VLCCs), holding 2 million barrels. And instead of a two-week voyage, the roundtrip to China requires a two-month sail there, then another two-month return trip empty.

Stay on your containment thread faggot

>two more weeks
Looking at energy , housing and food it's is more propable that theis Gay-homo-Union crashes than Russia. Oh an EU-commies.banned non electric cars from 2035 while shitting down the remaining coal plants ahahah
>You VILL be contained to ze global village #3456 Fuck the EU and hail Russia. Only countries that have and cerish Nuclear are human.
Samuel Peterson
What if Russia will use other countries tankers to trade oil with other non eu countries, what eu will do?
Cameron Parker
the insurance ban applies to any tanker carrying Russian oil, whether it's a Russian tanker or a Chinese tanker or Unknown
so these other countries would have to basically give their super expensive tankers to Russia and also use the Russian state reinsurer
Henry Hall
Russia existed for the last few centuries unlike Poland. Also Poland is where Germany used to be. Belarus is where Poland used to be. Worry about yourself, Russia will be fine and will still be here long after the west is dead and gone and replaced by shitskins.

>while shitting down the remaining coal plants ahahah
So Germany is closing... nuclear, gas and coal plants? Are they going to be powered by pure retardation?
Lincoln Brown
Lol, looks like I struck a nerve. But history proves Russia will be fine, but Poland? Who knows, maybe you’ll get partitioned by Russia, Germany, Hungary again for the tenth time.
Daniel Martin
Yeah, I have no idea why Germany is doing this, it’s like they are begging to get fucked by Russia again. Maybe it has become a fetish for them at this point.
Wyatt Roberts
It was always the same plan.
The entire army is controlled by Putin and Putin is controlled by his own personality cult just like Chris Chan. He made finely calculated moves using bullshit information given to him by his yes men, who moved up through the ranks through a career of ass kissing and parade marching. What else do you think those giant medals are for?
The Russian story closes with reenacting the George Dubya Bush administration. America can afford to be that stupid; metric countries cannot.

The endgame is here to purposefully cause a total breakdown ow society and then blame it on Russia and attacke in in WW3
The hungry and cold.goyim.will go to war.for. heat (oil and gas and wood) and and food (grain,.fertilizer ammonia reserves)
Screencap this. If you're.not a Russian loyalist you're anti white. The enemy sits in our government,.they.know what they are doing . The escalation started already the biggest culling of whites is ahea, initiated by the same.anti Russian ZOG buffoons that are destroying our infrastructure
