Latvia and Lithuania supported the claim of Poland in the case of the pipeline Opal

Latvia and Lithuania joined the Polish legal complaint against the decision of the European Commission on the Opal gas pipeline, reports RIA News message to the agency pap.

The agency recalled that Opal receives Russian gas coming to Europe via the Nord Stream offshore gas pipeline, but due to the restrictions of regulators the pipe was not fully loaded. Last fall, the European Commission (EC) approved the expansion of gas access to the pipeline. To the exclusive right of the Russian company to use 50% transit capacity (12,8 billion cubic meters), it allowed Gazprom to participate in the auction for another 40% (about 10,2 billion cubic meters).

Lithuania and Latvia joined the complaint that Poland sent to the EU General Court in the case of the Opal gas pipeline

, the agency writes.

A request for the support of the claim was previously addressed to the Baltic countries by the Polish Foreign Ministry.

Thus, the agency wanted to emphasize that the Opal case is also of significant importance for other countries of Central Europe. The Foreign Ministry expects that the intervention of Lithuania and Latvia will increase the chances for a settlement of the dispute favorable to Poland,

the report said.

In December 2016, the Polish company PGNiG Supply & Trading (PGNiG ST) and the Polish government applied to the General Court with claims to overturn the EC decision of October 28, 2016. At the end of February, Naftogaz filed a petition with the court to involve it as a third party in the case, which was initiated by PGNiG ST. Now the decision of the European Commission has been temporarily suspended.

Here they want to support their pants, the transit fee is covered with a penny, they’re glad to join anyone, the Baltic extinctions.

And what are you yellow, subscription?

[cost]

in 2013, the EC banned a Russian company from using 50% of the gas pipeline (12,8 billion cubic meters). Brussels reserved these volumes for “independent suppliers”, referring to the antitrust regulations of the Third EU Energy Package, which prohibits companies from simultaneously owning gas and the pipeline through which it is pumped.

Complete idiocy - leave half the pipe to those who are not

[Victor N]

This is detrimental to the business of the pipe owner. Why don't they go to court? After all, the payback period is increasing, the lost profit is growing. Apparently here Gazprom is underdeveloped. At least part of the gas can be sold before entering the Opal.

[The black]

And the Balts now live in that they eat up from the master's table. Grunted at Russia - got a bone. Anti-Russian screech for them is now the main source of income

[alexmach]

Yes, there is no idiocy, everything is thought out. The whole debate about who, whom and where will sell gas. Gazprom for many years sought to sell gas as close to the consumer as possible (where the price is most). I bought gas transit capacities and shares in gas distribution companies in Europe. Hence the transit through Ukraine, and the obligation to sell it on the western border of Ukraine ... it is very funny when the wise men offer to sell it on its eastern border "and let the Europeans themselves deal with Ukraine." So they need this! Europe is fighting for control over gas transit capacities in order to buy gas as east as possible (and for one as cheaply as possible). And as a maximum task - for control over the deposits themselves.

Complete idiocy - leave half the pipe to those who are not

Yeah ... that phrase sounds right: those who are not there yet.

[oleg-gr]

How not to join the lawsuit against the "aggressor". Trying to bend Brussels and Germany is sacred. Moreover, the EC promises to stop financing by 2020.

[siberalt]

And what should they do if A fell, B disappeared, what remains on the pipe? The freebie is over, the pipe closes.

[Warrior with machine gun]

decided to complain to the "big" Euroboss that evil Russia does not want to give gas for nothing, moreover, does not even want to leave a chance to steal something, but "the good Euroboss is already tired of these mongrels and remembers them only when they need to be used))

Latvia and Lithuania support Poland’s lawsuit over gas pipeline Opal

at the word "OPAL" sucked under a spoon ... nostalgia for "bulgartabuck" ... not like that, the current paper ...

The past cannot be returned: then the Bulgarians were brothers, at least as such. And now there is a nasty taste - let them smoke themselves.

It is certainly good if the entire pipe is “Yours”, but probably you should not redeem it completely. They change the rules there as they want, take and replay in a couple of years in favor of the non-volatility of Europe. We’ll lose money and nerves will be exhausted.

[Smog]

maxim947 The question is not about the pipe itself, but about its loading. Now, for Russia, the third energy package has a loading rate of 50% of capacity, that is, the pipe is half loaded. At the end of 2016, the Germans dragged another 40% of the load through the auction as well. no one can continue to pump gas into Opal as a continuation of SP1, at least with an auction, even without it. That is, the pipe is loaded at 90% of capacity. Well, Psheks supporting transit through our strongly "fraternal" territory 404 in every possible way torpedo it.

[maxim947]

Thank. But this is what I meant, just why do we need to buy back another 40%, letting the Germans buy them out, at the same time we will share the risks.

[hydrox]

Here is another :: Our gas also flows through the Republic of Belarus and Poland (although in a small amount). Therefore, psheks are afraid that if they continue to shout yawning at Russia, then this branch can be very easily drowned out - Europe will not get cold from this, and psheks will lose their transit income, but there will be gas dependence on Germany.

[Smog]

There is such a thing in the appendage to everything else.

[behemot]

Opal seems to be built with the money of Gazprom, and Gazprom is not allowed to use it. Here is such a strange Europe. We need energy security, but you cannot supply us with gas, but you are to blame for the fact that we do not supply gas. Morons shorter.

[Kasym]

Opal is a land continuation of the Northern Stream, has a connection with Yamal-Europe, as well as with Gazelle (in the Czech Republic, the capacity is three times more than the Czechs need, it can be wrapped in Poland, built in 2013).
I think that Poland will quickly take its claim - Gazprom needs to send a piece of paper, that since 19g. they won’t receive gas through Ukraine and from Belarus there will be no increase in pumping. What flows will they be fed from? The Poles themselves will also ask Sev.Potok-2 to wrap them up, throw the Gazelle from the Czech Republic to them, but it is better for Gazprom to “saturate” Kaliningrad. T.O. Warsaw will come running.
I have been writing for a long time that all of V. Europe until 2023 (Baltic states incl.) Will be beaten with brow in the Kremlin, definitely.

The Poles have already screwed up without extending the contracts for the supply of Russian gas after 2020 or 21 years. In short, work with them will continue until the expiration of the existing contract, and then let the exhaust gas sniff. If the volumes of gas are contracted by other consumers, the volumes may not be enough for their Polish cunning physiognomy. They will be taken from the Germans, but more expensive, however, as well as the Ukrins. Yes, and a demon with them. Opal pumped 20% more gas than anticipated, the EU now has reserves, and we received money for these 20% above the norm. They can still close the valve, no one will be hurt. And for Nord Stream-2, all restrictions have already been lifted ...

Well, about what barks - I do not see. But the fact that she is smarter than many economists is a fact!

[Smog]

Most interestingly, Germany, which was pushing the decision to increase the gas pipeline loading, is a donor country in the EU.
Poland and the Baltic “tigers” are countries in whose economy annual subsidies from the EU budget go. Maybe the burghers will soon get tired of feeding these "great" gay.ropetsev ?. Especially since now the shaves waved their handle

[Asadullah]

what do mongrel have to the gas pipeline between Germany and Russia ???

According to the law of the Third Energy Package, a place is reserved for the Nord Stream for some other gas exporter, but of course. no one else. Germany has struck a decision by which it will be able to receive additional volumes. At the same time, the volume through Ukraine will be reduced. Poland loses part of its income. Latvia receives gas directly from Russia, and to it on a drum, but from harm it is necessary to be consolidated with fascists. Lithuania receives part of the volume from the recuperator’s ship, although it is also mostly Gazprom’s but overbought at a low spot by Statoil and sold very expensively to Lithuania. That is, the position of Lithuania and Latvia is 100% political. Poland nevertheless has some sort of material question for everything. I think that the Russian government will also have political decisions.

Hello Dear! After building the Power of Siberia and Altai, for half a year I would have turned off this V.Europe (one summer of 2020 is enough) - there will be an "oil painting"! They will immediately forget about Energy Packs, Russophobia will be shoved into one place instantly.
Warsaw has not yet extended the agreement with Gazprom after 19g.

[Asadullah]

Hello Dear!

Salam bacha dear! Yes, God bless him with this gas, and so he will go up in price. But if they introduce the “Russia” card, with benefits for obtaining a visa, then for national governments, it will be a blow to the Faberge. They all moan about the fifth column. and here)))

[Kasym]

I don’t know about this topic.
But somehow he was sitting with a friend, and there was one person with a sister behind the Turk who lives in Istanbul. Brave, puffed up - I could not stand it. He spoke for Russian propaganda. It was after the Su-24. I tell him.
Listen, if you want to open a hotel or a weaving factory, how can you manage without electricity (energy)? NPPs were cut, Turkish Stream was cut - how is the country to develop !? It’s true that the state allocates a bag of coal per week to the family — and this is the whole of Istanbul and Ankara in winter.
Blown away instantly. "Energy is the basis of the economy of any country." A little more expensive - you become uncompetitive after some time. Therefore, the Kremlin holds the whole of V. Europe for Faberge - but as long as there is no alternative in the East, it will not put much pressure. Everything will change when it appears. Still Iran would have connected to the pipelines, but Libya to "take."
These are the things, brother.

[Kasym]

For finance, I have such a conviction. We need to take less abroad (less dependent on other countries) and develop import substitution, industrialization, and infrastructure. The authorities’s promises are correct, but questions with execution arise. Cars, ships, planes, machine tools, instrumentation. In short, high value-added products.
Then a fellow countryman once wrote that they should live in Norway. But he does not understand that ... you can’t drag a lot of oil in camels on camels; and the markets are far away. And the Norwegians have everything at hand - a hundred kilometers. and here is the market. And, for example, Kazakhstan, except the PRC, is surrounded by countries where there are enough of its energy sources.
I already notice that we (the Russian Federation and the Republic of Kazakhstan) instead of the currency drag. we buy metals. RK has been doing this for more than 6 years in a row.
That's when we raise the economy (we are unlikely to become leaders - there are few people, and territories are the largest per capita), then we will shake up this world fin. the system. In the meantime, it is not sour shaking — devaluation, inflation — all due to the welfare of the common people. Under such conditions, small and medium-sized businesses will be in a fever.

The Baltic states are yapping about and without, and the Psheks understand that they will remain without transit in the near future.

[CYBERNINJA]

All this “boiling” will continue until 2019, when Gazprom, not just in words but in practice, will not extend the contract with Ukraine for transit ... There already other dancing songs will begin ...

Like dogs in a village, one barks everyone picks up. why and why FIG knows her. With the Balts, anyone would doubt once again to remind about themselves so as not to be forgotten.

We will bring up dissatisfied with democracy and the third energy package. Everyone is unhappy with the road to the spot market, no attachment to oil and no long-term contracts. Hang yourself. The next measure will be trade for rubles.

I am very concerned about the problems of Europe, how will they receive our gas ... only in my village, 60 km from Moscow there is no gas! Well, I’ll prepare firewood in my quilted jacket — habitual. The main thing is that our grandchildren and chances would not freeze!

Have you expected that Gazprom will personally carry a pipe to your village in 5 houses? As far as I remember, since the 91st year Russia has been living under capitalism, but you still haven’t understood this and something tells me that you are not negotiating and your post with “witticisms” turned out to be no accident here, what kind of village there are, how many houses are there, who responsible for this disgrace 60 km from Moscow (of course, if the situation exists) ... but I already look forward to your answer, it’s Putin's fault.
