Popular Post Banana7 Posted March 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 4, 2022 It seems every day gasoline, gasohol and diesel fuel prices increase. Today at one station in Pattaya, per liter prices are: diesel 30.94 standard, diesel premium 37.46, 95 regular 38.55, 95 super 46.04, 91 regular 38.28. Thai government promised to keep diesel at 30B per liter or less. News media are reporting that the sanctions have led to a de facto ban on Russian oil. An estimated 4.3 million barrels per day of Russian oil is "missing from the market because Western buyers are refusing to buy it,". Banks, even the Bank of China, are refusing to extend credit to anyone wanting to finance the purchase of Russian oil. Some tankers are even refusing to load anything at Russian ports or carry Russian oil. Insurance companies are refusing to insure Russian oil cargo. Refiners are refusing to buy Russian oil. Russian crude oil for sale — at a huge discount of $18.60 below Brent, but nobody is buying. NYMEX WTI today is $113.71 at 09:49 ET. Some predicting WTI $150 soon. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite, I'm coming round to the idea that Russia should be shelled so they get a taste of war and wake up to what's going on 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All news is filtered , so no negative voice is heard . The Russians who do have contacts/media with outside Russia , most oppose strong. I have 5 Russian mates (St Petersburg and Moscow), ALL of them, and ALL of their acquaintances and friends are horrified at what Putin and his despotic entourage are doing. They tell me that the vast majority of the Russian people they talk with are as equally horrified by Putins hateful crime. They also say they understand the sanctions being imposed upon their nation, they don't like them but they understand, and they hope somehow they can be freed of Putin and once again return to the time before him and the promising (and welcomed with open arms by the whole world) time of post-USSR world integration and democracy. Anyone who thinks this war is anything but a product of a very sick and dangerous minded man who has cowered his own people through merciless state secret police, murder, threatening, beating, gulags, and existentially imprisoning his whole country in a steel cage of total censorship, of state driven and prosecuted terrorism is not living in the reality of events. As always it is the common man, the people who "suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune" at the hands of people like Putin and the organised crime-oligarchs, and ultra-nationalist neo-fascists (which Russia has plenty of) who enable him. Putin has, for the last decade, been slowly extending his megalomaniacal tentacles outwards to ensnare other nations into a great quasi-neo-Soviet Union and he will not stop, such is his boundless lust for power and his unhinged thinking. 7 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A car's tank is usually 70 litres, so the maximum you can save is 70 x £0.05 = £3.50, less than a pint of ale! Put that over here, if it goes up 50 satang, it will set you back Bht 35.

Are any percentages really valid. If the secret police asked you if you supported Putin sure the answer is yes. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is a De facto Ban? because all news reports are that the USA is still buying oil from Russia--and that was confirmed by the White house spokesperson --Jen Psaki on TV this morning.

Popular Post Hanuman2547 Posted March 5, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 5, 2022 Need to stop buying oil and everything else from Russia. A full economic boycott of the country. Putin has gone mad and is a threat to Ukraine and possibly more countries. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
