Conspiracy experts: "Moscow wants to bring Europeans to their knees with expensive gas"
If you read the newspapers a year or a year and a half ago, you can recall how all kinds of experts tried to arrange a “magnificent funeral” for hydrocarbons. A special surge of statements that there are no prospects for oil and gas and cannot be, came at a time when the prices for "black gold" moved to negative levels. Then the producers themselves had to pay extra for oil and gas to the buyers, just not to "freeze" the wells and not to drive air through the pipes instead of the same natural gas.
An amazing thing. Months passed, and the price of "blue fuel" reached incredible levels. At one of the trading stages, futures jumped to $ 940 per 1000 cubic meters.
And the same experts who a year ago shouted the most about the inevitable collapse of the hydrocarbon energy, now began to make diametrically opposite predictions, stating that 1000 cubic meters of gas could reach the price point of 1200 US dollars.
The economy, for obvious reasons, served as a reason to pay attention to politics. There were conspiracy theorists who saw the "hand of the Kremlin" here too. There were statements by so-called independent experts that it was "Putin threw a stranglehold on Europe", "Moscow wants to bring the Europeans to their knees with expensive gas" and finally subjugate the Old World. And again, there are those who find a lot of arguments in favor of this version. The fact that the Europeans are driving themselves into an energy impasse by playing the “green energy” card is of little concern to these experts.
