Satanic dances around an iron idol in Germany

108
Yes, terrible, terrible was the year 2022 from the Nativity of Christ in German soil. Scary. Terrible, for he predicted hunger and cold, but he was more terrible with obscurantism, all these misfortunes that gave birth.


May the readers forgive me some liberties in presenting the beginning of the play of the great Russian writer and playwright, born in the land of Kyiv, Mikhail Bulgakov, so beloved by Joseph, the son of Vissarion. But what he wrote in his novel The White Guard, from which the play The Days of the Turbins was born, somewhat agrees with what is happening today on German soil.



On German soil, today is the Days of the Turbine. Not the Turbins, one such Turbine, which I write with a capital letter, because it became the Herald of the Apocalypse for a single country.

In general, the situation is delusional. But the fact is: the Turbine surpassed the old lady Nancy Pelosi, who arranged an annealing party near Taiwan and stirred up the Asian region for several days. But Nancy flew back to the USA, but the Turbine remained ...

What's in Germany? The prospects are rubbish. Gas oozes from the pipe, pumping units stand up one after another, requiring repair. “Siemens” is frankly a pity, there already from the word “turbine” the management already, probably, hiccups begin. It is still with THAT Crimean turbine stories this word stands up. And the combination of the words "Russia" and "Turbine" in general promises only troubles of the highest kind.

Things are no better for those involved in chemistry. BASF, Bayer, Henkel, Boehringer and others are howling on the topic “Give gas, otherwise we will fire everyone!”, But then she found a scythe on a stone, and the situation gets out of control.

Laughter with laughter, and memes about the Turbine have long overtaken old Nancy with her Taiwanese anabasis. Because everything is correct, Nancy turned around and flew back to the States, and the Turbine remained. The question is where and how.

Perhaps it is worth recalling what the essence of our story is. Suddenly, someone missed, watching the Ukrainian events.

Some time ago, Gazprom, acting within the framework of agreements and contracts, gave Siemens a turbine from the gas compressor unit of the SP-1 pipeline. For scheduled repairs. The turbine went to Canada, where the Siemens plant for the production of this equipment is located.

There were problems with the return of the turbine. The Canadians turned out to be very smart and advanced gentlemen in military affairs and saw in the turbine elements from a Rolls-Royce turbojet engine. It is not entirely clear where the Russians would have been able to stick this turbine for military use, but it was ordered "Do not let it go!". And the turbine hung for a long time with the Canadians, who decided that it was suitable for sanctions.

Well, yes, they don’t need Russian gas ...

When the Germans caught fire, they began to look for ways to solve the problem. And in some completely incomprehensible way, the Turbine did start from Canada. THAT submarines immediately come to mind, which dragged the gold of the Reich across the oceans unnoticed.
How - it did not become clear, but Turbine left Canada. Perhaps Siemens had nothing to do with it, perhaps the brave guys from KSK worked, but Turbina really left inhospitable Canada.

But for some reason, she went not to Russia, according to all the agreements and documents, but to Germany.

And there ... disappeared!

Of course, the story takes on a frankly anecdotal character with an admixture of idiocy, but indeed, a hefty piece of iron rolled somewhere and for several days no one at all knew where the Turbine was.

The German federal government actually put the Turbine on the wanted list and eventually found it. In the town of Mülheim an der Ruhr, North Rhine-Westphalia, near Duisburg.

In general, it seems strange what she forgot there, our traveler, but German Chancellor Olaf Scholz himself went to check for compliance.

Satanic dances around an iron idol in Germany

Scholz looked at Turbina, Turbina looked at Scholz, and the German chancellor thoughtfully said that "everything is in order, you can take it."

But then Gazprom suddenly balked. And, absolutely justified. The turbine was supposed to get to Russia from Canada by a specified route. What she forgot in Germany is a question. What could be done with it during illegal transportation is a question. What is the probability of an accident immediately after installation is a question. Who will be responsible for everything is the question.

Lots of questions, no answers. It is clear that Olaf Scholz is a great specialist in turbines, but still his word cannot be attributed to guarantees of performance. That is why Gazprom is in no hurry to pick up its unit, because it is really not at all clear how it was transported and everything else.

In general, if according to the mind, the turbine should be sent back to the plant, there it should be examined, the relevant documents and guarantees should be issued, and then it can be installed.

But Scholz, standing near the Turbine, gave out something that made many analysts howl, some with delight, some with horror: an inspection by specialist Scholz showed that the turbine was perfectly prepared, there were no obstacles from the FRG for it to leave for Russia and there start working immediately.

Well, there are, however, petty formalities: Gazprom must say that it really needs the turbine and provide customs and transport documents. And get consent, since the Turbine is in Germany, from the EU countries and the UK ...

Naturally, in Gazprom they twisted their five fingers at the temple: there are no documents for the transportation of the turbine from Germany and could not be, since Germany in general "was not on the lists."

Moreover, by resting the turbine in Germany, the Germans thereby greatly complicated the matter: you have to be a very optimist, so reckless, in order to take full responsibility for the turbine, which was lying around, I don’t understand where, in place of Gazprom.

Given the level of Russophobia in Europe, could there have been sabotage? Easy. Gentlemen who wished to remain anonymous could spoil something inside, but to whom should they make claims?

Because the Turbine, apparently, will lie in this German town. And her three sisters will remain in Canada, and the Germans and everyone else can only dream of increasing the volume of gas supplies.

It is clear that in the West they will now tell us what we are ... And what are we? And we, in fact, nothing.

For translation-explanation, I will give you such an example: you order pizza. Regular pizza delivery. Waiting for a courier with your favorite dish, looking forward to it, so to speak. And suddenly you get a call. From me. “Guys, I have your pizza. Come in and take it."

Everything is fine, but our relationship is so-so: I blew all four wheels of your car three days ago, and yesterday you cut my clothesline with panties. Friendship in general. Frank and kind.

Will you take your pizza from me without looking, or will you think hard like that? The powder of a modern laxative is tasteless and odorless, and cyanide is generally ... In general, it’s not worth it. Especially given my frankly bastard character and dislike for you and your cat.

There is no need for you to take risks, there is no need for Gazprom to risk its own gas pipelines built with state money, installing on them, with the permission of the chancellor of a country that has nothing to do with the gas pipeline, equipment that has passed through the hands of people in two hostile countries.

This is imprudent. Especially considering that Siemens can generally turn off its turbines remotely. And who in Europe can tell the concern? And what can they order?

In general, the situation is awful.

We can not say that the situation on our part did not try to somehow rectify. Perhaps the most sane German politician was involved, Gerhard Schroeder, who not only works in Russian companies, but is also friends with Putin. I'm not sure that after this was done to Schroeder in Germany (the list of what he was deprived of is impressive), they will listen to him there. And it would be worth it.


Still, it’s as simple as daylight: Putin, through Schroeder, tried to push a very simple idea into German heads: Nord Stream 1 works to its fullest if certain guarantees are accepted for it to ensure the operation of the gas pipeline. The same for SP-2. Gazprom needs to recoup the invested amounts.

Not? Here's 20% of the contracted volumes for you through your own fault and we begin the rehearsal of the energy Apocalypse, only instead of four horsemen there will be one. Miller.

And if the winter turns out to be instructive ... Oh, in general, a funny cataclysm will come under the general name "Woe from Wit."

Why is that? Well, judge for yourself, in Europe everyone is so unanimously declaring that they are refusing aggressor gas. For good. But… after winter. In 2023. And they are feverishly looking for ways to replace Russian gas.

And what is the point of delaying the energy doomsday in Europe? Well, what is there to pull the cat for the inexpressible, only to strain the eardrums. They immediately took it and showed where the Apocalypse comes from. And so it is clear that from us, you just need to demonstrate in color and with special effects.

And we will play with the East in the development of gas infrastructure. Looking at how events will develop in the West.

I won’t specifically analyze everything that starts in Germany, there are normal people in the opposition like Tino Khrupalla, the leader of the Alternative for Germany party, the third largest German party, who are already starting to raise a wave of popular indignation.

There is something to worry about: cold in winter, lack of work for employees of chemical concerns, an ongoing scheme to support alternative gas suppliers at the expense of taxpayers, an increase in gas and electricity tariffs by 3-5 times, and the crown of everything is an additional payment of 1000 euros per burgher per year. There is something to take to the streets and arrange an all-German howl.

Disaster - that's what awaits Germany. Especially after Energy Minister Habek was so received in Qatar. Scholz and Habek are not perceived today as people capable of correcting the situation.

But the Germans...

Eh, the wrong German went, not the right one at all.

Where is the prudence and cautious pragmatism of the burghers? Okay, they don’t want to fight anymore, who’s stopping you from living like a human being? After all, it was possible without war and servile groveling before the Anglo-Saxons ...

After all, there are smart people in Germany! And they understand that the turbine has absolutely nothing to do in the country! This whole kindergarten, performed by the chancellor, is the stupidest nonsense. Well, he found the "missing" turbine. Will he find the papers tomorrow?

And the documents clearly state that the turbine should not be located in Germany at all, its path under the contract runs directly from Canada to Russia!

I really hope that the situation can be corrected. Is it for nothing that the best friend of the Germans (no, not Biden) Vladimir Vladimirovich is very fond of these people. Maybe he will come up with a friend Gerhard.

But in general it's enough to play refined gentlemen. It is better to take as a model how gentlemen from Qatar behave. Would you say rude? Well, yes, there are a few. But in Qatar today there are queues of tankers for Qatari LNG, so there is something to behave a little arrogantly. Especially. By the way, Khabek came to talk purely. The visit was not prepared and caused surprise.

Alas, today gas and bread are instruments of pressure. Political. And the more pressure on some countries from yesterday's "rulers of the world", the lower the pressure in gas pipes can be.

But this is normal, everyone has their own method of pressure. Who has an aircraft carrier with destroyers, who has a valve on the pipe. Indeed, to each his own.

BUT if so, how to look at these frankly stupid dances around gas pipelines, transit to Kaliningrad, grain contracts, dances around turbines?

Can Germany survive the winter without Russian gas and oil? Of course, no one will die of hunger, no one will freeze to death. Unless the winter is very cold.

And you can remember the mothballed German nuclear power plants and the coal mines of the Ruhr, re-mothball it and start producing / extracting ...

You can also arrange savings. Like in Britain. Or Japan. Potbelly stoves, hot water in the bath once a week or a month, a little bit so pigish, but what to do? He washed his hands and gave money to Putin, is that what they say today?

Yes, we remember the times of Euroswine in the Middle Ages. Back to the future, right?

In general, the Germans should remember this photo shoot from the most unfortunate chancellor near the Turbine. Scholz started a story that could lead Germany to not-so-good times.

And what to do, we are not like that, life is like that ...

    The author proceeds from his own ideas about logic and, of course, about state interests.
    Scholz was appointed to the position and he is fulfilling the appointment. He is not interested in anything other than satisfying *employer*. Therefore, statements and actions are only * political *, without the logic of the development of their own state.
    And that Scholz is the only * appointee *? Who chose the EU leaders? But they claim the supreme power not only in Europe.
    Therefore, the actions of most European figures are * political *. Beyond logic and simple common sense

      Roman, they will get out, if desired. They spianerili all the transit gas that was supposed to go to INDIA! !!!!! Simply, they took the entire volume of that gas for themselves, considering that they needed it more. And now it’s also easy, the transit flow will be halved, and we, Russia, will remain the last!

      There is no other diversion in the direction of mercenary analysis from a simple question: "-When will we start hitting the enemy as expected, and not playing spillikins with wheat, negotiations, collusion and other nonsense.?"

      It seems so to you.
      All these wonderful people are members of the same corporation. Those. they are all fascists (in Mussolini's sense). The leader of the corporation (leader, Duce, Fuhrer, conductor) determined the mission and the highest goal of the corporation. This goal cannot be economic - only ideological, even religious. And they all reach it together. Those who do not pull are shot and go ahead. What economy? Have mercy.
      But the economy is the basis. They also assured themselves that everything is in order in the economy, and there are no peaks that these "Bolsheviks" cannot reach. That's what they achieve.
      What do we have? We have gas in our apartment.

    The situation with the turbine is certainly interesting, the case when the sanctions went too far. Canadian authorities have issued engine removal documents, which are in no way related to the current contract, to Siemens Energy Canada Limited, which is not a party to the contract. If the engine is transported to Russia, there is a risk that the Canadian authorities may consider this a violation or circumvention of the conditions of the issued permit. In turn, this may lead to the revocation of the permit and the impossibility of repairing other engines of the Portovaya CS in Canada.
    It seems that in the current situation Gazprom will not accept the turbine back.

      In this case, the Russian side is simply doing what the European side has been striving for the past few years - reducing the EU's dependence on gas from the Russian Federation. In Europe, the gas embargo, established by the supplier himself, cannot be understood and understood. Until nothing changes in this regard, the turbine will collect dust in the city of Mülheim an der Ruhr, and Germany and all of Europe will receive less Russian gas. By and large, the Russian gas monopolist made it clear that the situation with the turbine has become irreversible and it is impossible to solve the problem within the framework of the current sanctions regime.

        “Immediately after the repair, the engine was supposed to be transferred to Gazprom. However, due to Canadian sanctions and without the consent of Gazprom, the engine was sent to Germany instead of Russia, which does not comply with the terms of the contract. The Canadian authorities issued documents for the export of the engine, which are in no way related to the current contract, to Siemens Energy Canada Limited, which is not a party to the contract."
        The return of the turbine to Russia, as well as the maintenance of other turbines, requires not only exemptions from Canadian sanctions, but also written guarantees that EU and British sanctions will not apply to equipment for Nord Stream and other gas pipelinesconcludes Gazprom.

        Why can't we produce such turbines?
        Produce, but a different size and power. Our turbines are installed on our other gas pipelines.
        Are you suggesting import substitution? Can. But.
        1. It will take time to produce design documentation and the product itself in iron. And it's definitely not a couple of weeks. Although, there is a backlog: our turbines are installed on a similar SP-2 gas pipeline.
        2. In general, item 1 is not even needed. All this is there and ready at SP-2, just open the valve. The Germans do not want at minimal cost, the Germans want "through the ass." Well, why should we fool ourselves so pervertedly? Why support their twisted brain? Let them come to consciousness first, then we'll talk.
        3. We, in principle, why strain something? If people want to commit suicide, then it is basically impossible to prevent this. Well, one time you can take a suicide off the roof, the second time... Expend a lot of energy, risk the lives of other people... He, after all, will kill himself anyway, if not today, then tomorrow.
        So no need to freak out. You need to do everything strictly according to the instructions. Moreover, the money is paid, let Siemens work strictly according to the contract.

    And somewhere, a hundred and fifty kilometers from the golden-domed one, a pensioner read this article and chuckled:
    - Turbine, turbine ... What a difference we have!
    And he looked tenderly into the corner of the kitchen. There, next to a used gas stove (of a German brand, by the way), a gas cylinder proudly stood!
    Then the pensioner remembered that, according to calculations, it will end soon ...
    - Nothing, there is still a lot of it in Urengoy!
    - the reader answered himself, but also looked out the window - there, under a flimsy canopy, a pile of firewood was lined up. "Just in case"...

      I also have a gas tank. 3 months is enough. A pensioner and 5 is enough. The price of the balloon is 1000 rubles. To put it mildly, not burdensome.
      I give a tooth that a German pensioner and not a pensioner would also not refuse such a gas cylinder in his kitchen.
      And central heating, which in principle is also not bad. About 60 come out on my 7000 square meters in winter. Of course, it’s expensive for a pensioner. But the house is always warm. Yes, and with gas equipment there is no crap by definition.

          Why on the side? Gas - does it exist? There is! In a cylinder or from a pipe - this is already a secondary question.
          It is clear that "through the pipe" - this is gas heating. But here the question is the price of laying a pipe to each farm and settlement ... And not everywhere, let's say it is needed (option: central heating of the district of apartment buildings, where individual, separate houses were later built. Pulling gas there is not very efficient - there are few consumers, and for "new settlers" it is quite expensive).
          If in the USSR there were problems with this issue, then at the present time of capitalism ... Although gasification is going on and many even at the expense of the state! Still, the distances and population density in our country and "in others" are not comparable ...

                  Then our friend said that the attitude towards traditional plumbing began to change. But the question is different. Such plumbing simply does not involve regular hand washing. And 100% of this is not in culture. Since it is difficult to hammer this into people's heads in a short time. Especially considering the prices.
                  Under the early Soviet regime, a huge amount of effort was made in our country. And the new generation grew up with such ideas. But that was government policy.
                  What the British cannot refuse is the ability to build cities so that there is no dirt. In terms of earth and clay. The rain washes the city. With garbage dumps and landfills everything is fine there. There is.

              With private pension insurance, everything is very solid and reliable. German insurance companies, and I work for one of them (ERGO), are very conservative in terms of capital investment. The risk is drastically minimized. Three years ago, my agents accompanied the payment of life insurance. The agreement was made in September 1940. Contribution amount, one Reichsmark per month! What happened to Germany later, everyone knows. But the insurance companies survived.

    Strong article title. winked Based on the meaning of what was written, one gets the impression of a somewhat exaggerated apocalypse in the EU today (or tomorrow?). As for the ill-fated turbine, the media reports:
    (Izvestia 03.08.2022) Deliveries of turbines for Nord Stream are not subject to the European Union (EU) sanctions regime, and the relevant documents are not required for their shipment. This was stated on August 3 by Deputy Spokesman for the German Cabinet of Ministers Wolfgang Büchner...
    “Such a document is not needed by definition, because the turbine is not part of the sanctions regime, since gas supplies from Russia to Europe and, thus, supplies to Russia of the equipment necessary for this are not covered by the EU sanctions regime,” Buechner said at a briefing.
    BRUSSELS, August 5 - RIA Novosti. The European Commission said there was “nothing” in the restrictive measures of the European Union that would prohibit the turbines for Nord Stream from returning to Russia. "There is nothing in the sanctions that would prohibit turbines, in this case Siemens turbines ... from being sent to Russia," European Commission spokesman Eric Mamer said at a briefing.

      "Gas storage facilities are now at the level of 66%," she told reporters before the start of an extraordinary council of EU energy ministers.
      In June, the European Union adopted new rules, according to which storage facilities must be filled with "blue fuel" by 80% by November 1, 2022, and in subsequent years - by 90%. There are gas storage facilities in 18 of the 27 EU countries.

    The turbine story is just a special case of the economic transformation of the left-liberal West, which decided to build a system isolated from the world economy with resource rationing like the USSR 2. It would be strange to consider gas supply separately outside of left-wing politics. We take this and leave this.

    All of it, of course, and the irony in the text is entertaining. But one banal question does not go out of my head - why do non-gas-producing countries produce and service such equipment?! Well, Canada is quite a mining country. But the rest of this topic? A long time ago, Russia should have had all this. Looks absurd request .

    I read the article with pleasure. For the style and for the form of presentation - THANK YOU to the author!
    But essentially...
    From my point of view, the Germans are pragmatists, and no one is going to cut branches.
    For their "gas suffering" they will surely receive some kind of compensatory "goodies" from their older overseas brother.
    Today, apparently, "gas pressure" on Germany looks catastrophic only in our minds. So far, they are doing very well, and I still don’t hear the cod of the collapsing German economy.
    Yes, the chemical industry will really sink, but how much will the German military-industrial complex revive!?
    All those who gave away to Ukraine, old Soviet equipment, will definitely want to fill the empty hangars with newer ones.
    And mostly made in Germany.
    Another parallel.
    We are in the 41st, we had no doubt that "Our cause is just. The enemy will be defeated and Victory will be ours."
    It took the Germans four whole years to understand that we were right.
    Everyone thinks differently.
    Now, of course, they have "wised up". Already they do not climb to fight.
    But war, even someone else's civil war, is a gambling and even profitable occupation. And completely irrational!
    Well, how can they resist, so as not to make at least small bets against us?
    From my point of view, as soon as German historical phantom pains and today's geopolitical fantasies begin to really put pressure on ordinary Germans, Germany's policy towards Russia will change instantly.

    The reason for our current antagonism with the EU is NOT only the notorious "hand of Washington". This would be a highly primitive representation.
    First, a little retrospective.
    The EU as such was born during the XV and was an association of more or less significant economies and industries in Europe in the interests of mutually beneficial symbiosis, increasing prosperity and smoothing out the competition between these states that could potentially lead them to a new war (which no one wanted). The EU countries understood that in the modern world, the era of colossi had come again, and they, who had lost their colonial empires, could only be considered as such only together. And only together they can maintain their European standard of living in a world where there is the economy of the USA, the USSR, Japan, and the emerging giants of Asia - China and India. United by this, they began to "sculpt". With the collapse of the USSR, firewood was thrown into the furnace and the EU got more members, for good or for worse, but at that time it was unprofitable for them to refuse expansion by expansion, and they expanded by expansion, believing that it would bring not so many hungry mouths, so cheap workers hands, raw materials and consumers. However, on the example of Poland, the guys got burned IMHO, because Poland began to play the game quite aggressively, often pulling the blanket over itself, as it deserved. But they didn’t know how to give back to the EU (although Brexit seemed to have taught how to do this), and therefore the prospect of further expansion there caused more “for” than “against”. But the desire to get another noisy and "on their own mind" Poland was clearly not wanted there, especially the flagships of the EU. At the same time, they also did not want the zone of influence of the Russian Federation to expand again, because the absence of Ukraine in the EU itself did not prevent them from slowly flirting with this country, achieving more convenient conditions for themselves in its markets. For the time being, the EU was quite satisfied with neutral Ukraine - being in the EU it would be "Poland 2.0", a noisy addition to the already restless eastern flank. But with the emergence of the risk of our more active (than Yanuca) intervention in Ukrainian politics, the EU's position has changed, simply because it's better to have a beer in your hand than a girl in the distance. However, the time was lost, the Eurobureaucrats are not particularly able and willing to work in paramilitary conditions - and therefore, it is logical that in their actions a line of convulsions and homemade fire can be traced in the field of quickly glossing over this situation at least somehow, just to start digesting. For our part, we are torpedoing this as much as possible, this alignment does not suit us - it does not bring us benefits. The Ukrainian elites, on the other hand, understand that only by preserving the most integral state they will be interesting in Europe, only in this case they will sit at the table with big boys - and they are trying to preserve it also convulsively and self-made.
    So the line of our current antagonism with the EU is a typical game of raising rates, well, or a game of "peepers" if you like. Ukraine rubs the EU about the power of its potency, the EU sometimes believes in this and tries to "squeeze", we also rub the EU and Ukraine about the power of our potency, but in such a way that, God forbid, scare the partners and cause critical damage to their interests, building up the party to the rank of principle and head-on competition of resources. So far, there is no final certainty that they can take Ukraine or that we can miss it. But that's not the same as deciding not to try.
    That's what they're trying..
