Fairly obvious answer really, RU is still calling the shots in Georgia via its puppet regime, the situation in Ukraine will be focusing georgian minds on where thier loyalty lies, but to decide to lean west will inevitably incur the wrath of the Russians which seems in capable of fighting in the battle fields and targets women children and the elderly instead. The Georgians will rightly be nervous of kicking the hornets nest but how long can you live next to and under the control of fascist child murderers? They will inevitably make the right choice eventually, this as always is a battle of hearts and minds which russia never understood and for that reason can never win. Everyone hates them even the Chinese and Indians, tho that doesn't stop them buying cheap oil for the time being.
It amazes me how some of you long termers here do not understand the significance of Ukraine or the War in relation to FRR. This has been brewing for decades. Read the European energy security reports from back then, I posted links a while back
Alot of shares have changed hands under very dubious circumstances. One can only assume someone wants in cheap to access the other projects, only other explanation is sheer incompetence of CMRS BOD and I struggle to believe that.
To me it reads that CMRZ requested an amount which was paid. Cmrs changed management, BZT requested update and details of when balance was to be repaid but has not yet had a suitable reply. However BZT has the capital ready. This should never have got to this stage but looks entirely the fault of cmrs and thier new board.
The west did not start this but judging from Europe energy security reports over the last decade the west knew this was going to happen and were prepared in many ways. FRR is a holding vehicle for the recovery of energy security, it was always a long game with the Russians dictating the timescales but its clear FRR is as indestructible as the Ukrainian military , they both have the same backers after all.
Anyone know how many russians captured in Lyman. Reports say Russians surrounded but also that russian forces withdrew.
Will Putin add climate destruction to his war crimes repertoire, the gas from those Western fields has to go somewhere else the Wells will collapse, will he leave the tap open, spilling tons of gas into the atmosphere and creating the west an ecological disaster to clear up?
Putin knows he has lost, his days on the Earth are limited so now it is all about revenge. Time for the Russians to claw back what little reputation they have and get rid of him and his cronies, matter of days of weeks now IMO
Lyman back in UK hands. Oh dear Putin
Putin fears being ousted and the gas being turned back on to rescue the Russia economy, he would rather isolate russia dooming it in the process than be part of Europe which is democratic and largely respects peoples rights. He is a dinosaur and it can only go one way for dinosaurs
Full up with Russians fleeing thier own despotic government...
The Western gas fields yamal and sclokman will never supply China they are too far away. What will happen to the gas there now? The fields cannot be simply turned off. Potential for environmental disaster, certainly an economic one fir Europe and Russia. Utter utter stupidity. Russia has cut its own throat. Europe will freeze depending on the weather but Europe will survive. Chaos and unrest and likely full blown revolution and collapse await Russia now. I suspect it will start in military units posted in Ukraine and work back to Russia
.. what it means to be Russian..

Russian sabotage, as they can't sell the gas they seem to have chosen to vent it and use it as a weapon in Denmark and Swedish territory.
Moex down 4% currently 50 points from previous low, looking dire for them
Lucrative European gas sales are history and gas can't be rerouted.
People fleeing the country, families torn apart, workers taken from economy.
Military in shreds, no one wants to buy Russian now they have seen it blown to pieces, broken down, abandoned in fields.
Even thier totalitian allies are turning thier backs. Iran has its own problems due to its treatment of its own people and China sees where all this heading and is backing away so as not to share Russia fate.
Putin is headed for the Hague if he gets out if this alive.
Looks likely the Russians fleeing Georgia will be helping the Georgians throw out the few remains orcs when the time comes.
Justice for All
Yet our best trained, best educated, best equipped
Best prepared troops refuse to fight
As a matter of fact, it's safe to say that they would rather switch
Than fight
Nail in coffin
Deals are being struck as a new sense of urgency and common vision emergency. Georgia needs to get rid of its kremlin run government then chuck the orcs out of the occupied regions, then gas deals will be inked.

Clearly Russia is going to lose Ukraine Militarily. It seems Putin will now erode European energy networks but cutting off supply, and Ukrainian energy by damaging but not destroying nuclear reactors and dangerous game indeed and one that could force NATO intervention thus I think the Ukrainians will push them back quickly now. But ghe aim is to freeze Europe into submission this winter. This article shows the effect on the ex soviet states I'm afraid currently Georgia could be viewed as a Belarus Lite regime but public opinion is formating and it wouldn't take much to tip it into revolution. I think its that which we are waiting for. Georgia is likely to be key to solving this energy crisis once and for all and rebellion there will likely be the nail in Putins coffin.
