The explosion of the main gas pipeline in Chuvashia is most of all unprofitable for an overjoyed Ukraine - experts
The Urengoy-Pomary-Uzhgorod gas pipeline was attacked from both ends today.
During the day, an explosion occurred in the Vurnarsky district of Chuvashia. Before the fire, work was carried out on the gas pipeline by the operating organization.
Versions about the sabotage attack were expressed only by bloggers, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
The Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation opened a case of violation of industrial safety requirements at hazardous facilities. According to investigators, a gas leak and fire occurred near the village of Yambakhtino, killing 3 people.
As a result of the incident, transit through Ukraine was completely stopped. However, Gazprom specialists promised to repair the gas pipeline in three to four days.
However, in the evening, the Ukrainian Armed Forces allegedly fired at the Sudzha gas measuring station in the Kursk region. This is currently the only place where Russian gas enters Ukrainian territory (Ukraine refused to accept gas through the Sokhranovka station several months ago) and is sent towards Europe.
At this point, many people have started spinning in their heads the sacramental phrase from TV “Coincidence? Don't think". And the most advanced observers remembered the Latin - Cui prodest?.
Belarus expert Yuri Baranchik doubts that the service organization in Chuvashia really turned out to be so “amazingly crooked.” He draws attention to the fact that, by a strange coincidence, this all happened on the same day that the European Commission decided on the issue of the gas price ceiling.
“And you know, I don’t believe in such coincidences. Look: the announcement of a price ceiling, and for any gas, not just Russian; explosion in Chuvashia; very serious friction between the European Union and Qatar, he declares that he will reconsider the preliminary agreements with the EU, the price of gas on the TTF instantly jumps from 1100 to 1260 dollars, the Sudja GIS is inactive, and America is all in white. If someone then says that there is no synchronization in the actions of Moscow and Washington regarding the truncation of the European economy, then I won’t even find what to answer to this - like, “don’t believe your eyes,” Baranchik wrote in his TG -channel.
However, it cannot be said that Europe is left completely without Russian gas. Yes, Nord Stream was blown up, the Yamal-Europe pipeline was stopped, but there is also the Turkish Stream, on the basis of which in the future Russia and Turkey would like to create a hub. The press secretary of the Romanian government, which sits on this pipe, Dan Carbunaru, has already stated that the explosion at Urengoy-Pomary-Uzhgorod will not affect the country in any way.
Thus, Ukraine turns out to be the last one.
“Ukraine today, in fact, has no other options for obtaining blue fuel - well, except for the real reverse of the Ukrainian gas transportation system for gas supplies from Europe. Although there is still a question: does Europe itself have anything to share with Ukraine, and even if it does find something, will it begin to share this very gas,” writes lawyer Tatyana Montyan.
“It is noteworthy that not a single “Ukrainian Nazi” during the 10 months of the war even tried to move towards the gas pipeline,” notes Belarusian political scientist Alexander Shpakovsky.
At the same time, Ukrainian propagandists, stunned by electrical starvation, manage to rejoice at “another explosion among Muscovites.”
“You meet very strange people in Ukraine. Ok, this is a problem. But, for whom first of all? What is important now is real physical resources and not currency and waste paper. And Russia will retain the gas. And Europe will have less of it. And the one that will be there has already risen in price to $1250/thousand. cubes Without gas transit, Ukraine has problems supplying many regions with gas. So don't rush to rejoice. However, it doesn’t matter. I suggest starting repairs in the spring, otherwise it’s cold now,” economist Alexander Dudchak gloomily ironizes.
