The leaders of Russia and Kazakhstan discussed the creation of a "tripartite gas union" with Uzbekistan

Yesterday, November 28, a meeting of the leaders of Russia and Kazakhstan took place in the Kremlin. This is Tokayev's first visit since his re-election to the presidency in Kazakhstan. In general, in the status of the head of Kazakhstan, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev has personally met with Vladimir Putin for the eleventh time.

During the conversation, the two leaders touched upon various topics related to relations and strengthening partnerships between neighboring countries. In particular, Vladimir Putin and Kassym-Zhomart Tokayev signed a declaration containing the key positions of the parties in terms of geopolitics.

The presidents of Russia and Kazakhstan paid special attention to the development of trade relations in the face of modern challenges that have arisen in world markets. In order to increase the effectiveness of trade cooperation, the parties spoke in favor of the depoliticization of multilateral economic organizations.

Tokaev's press secretary Ruslan Zheldibay later said that the presidents discussed the so-called "tripartite gas union" during the meeting. The politician wrote about this on his social network.

The prospective agreement between Russia, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan is aimed at regulating and coordinating the transportation of our energy resources through the territory of the above-mentioned countries.

In this case, we are talking, first of all, about the projects of new gas pipelines to Pakistan.

First of all, we are talking about projects for new gas pipelines to Pakistan. So we are getting off the oil and gas needle.

Why repeat nonsense after the Anglo-Saxons and our liberals.
Look how Algeria, Qatar and Norway, together with the United States, make good money on the sale of gas, or Saudi Arabia and Canada on the sale of oil, or Australia on the sale of coal, and no one accuses them of being on some kind of needle.
Now Poland and Turkey want to become major resellers of gas in the EU, and again, none of them say that they will sit on the same needle.

Fossil resources will be the most profitable business for a long time, because it brings enormous profits, so we must wait for the Anglo-Saxons to start another mess in Central Asia, Afghanistan and Pakistan in order to make it impossible or problematic to supply gas from Russia to Pakistan and India.

And Algeria, Qatar and Norway, in addition to resources, what else are they famous for? In addition to fish among the Norwegians and dates among the Algerians and Qataris. Remind me how the USSR in the mid-late 80s, relying on petrodollars and scoring on its light and food industries, ceased to exist, or is this again stupid fiction. People need not just money, but what they can buy with it.

scoring on their light and food industries

What makes you think that new markets for energy resources will lead to a decline in the "light and food industry"?

People need not just money, but what they can buy with it.

Really, if the export of "oil and gas" is stopped, the people you write about will start buying this "oil and gas" themselves?

In vain they offended Norway and Algeria, despite the fact that they have been producing various products for a long time. Qatar is worth mansions. This is a fact and nothing more.
But the fact that you bypassed the United States, Saudi Arabia, Australia and Canada is surprising. Why?

The main thing is that these meetings should be useful for Russia as well.

[Alex777]

The success of the diversification of gas supplies depends on this meeting.
To go not only to China, but also to Pakistan, and even to India.
A very serious and important project. I hope he succeeds...

[Fisherman]

Oops! Both countries are crawling away from the Chinese needle to ours! One can only welcome such a movement! It is clear that this is from their hopelessness, but this is the wisdom of the GDP - to create hopeless corridors for them only in our direction!

[tralflot1832]

He does not get off the Chinese needle. He declared the development of relations with China and Russia a priority. Not a word about the United States.

[Fisherman]

the Chinese settle a little, roll back ... so the Central Asians get off a little

The Pakistani gas project, this is the Russian-Chinese project! The first stage of this project was to squeeze the Americans out of Afghanistan. Now the project participants have appeared on the stage and the initial route has been determined!

I have been following Russian-Kazakh relations for a long time. Tokayev is in no hurry to make pro-Russian statements, and many phrases generally look like pro-Western ones. But if you look at a significant increase in imports from Kazakhstan after the ban on Western supplies to the Russian Federation, then even a fool understands that this is not Kazakhstan's own production. Obviously, this is not done to the detriment of its own economy, but in practical terms, Russia benefits from cooperation with the Republic of Kazakhstan, at least no less than from a talkative dad, given the fact that we have to constantly provide "fraternal" economic assistance to Belarus.

Still, they would have decided with uranium, otherwise the French had already climbed there.

[tralflot1832]

Tokayev said this in Moscow, and he still has to go to China.

triple gas union

Triple Alliance? Seriously? What other name could not be invented? Or does GDP know history only in public

Triple Alliance? Seriously?

As far as I understand, we are talking about a "trilateral union". And the journalists called him "triple". That in itself speaks of the professional qualities of both the journalists themselves and those who reprint it.

[iouris]

As I understand it: agreed ... But the current is 50 percent.
