Russia can't find anyone to sell it's gas to. So much for funding Putin's war when India and China are now paying under $20 a barrel for Russia's oil. Xi is not helping out -- this is strictly a one way relationship where Putin is Xi's biatch. Russia discovers the limits of its friendship with China, as Xi visit fails to secure gas deal https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/worl...ils-to-secure-gas-deal/ar-AA190KF2?li=BBoPWjQ So much for that “friendship with no limits”. China had already been exploiting Moscow’s economic difficulties to get hold of dirt-cheap Russian oil. This week, despite Xi Jinping’s diplomatic love-in with Vladimir Putin in Moscow, the Chinese dictator left without saying a word about a deal on the Power of Siberia 2 gas pipeline. Russia desperately needs to sell its gas in China and the Far East now that the huge European market has gone up in the flames of Putin’s war on Ukraine. The complete absence of any progress on a new Siberia gas pipeline showed the limits of what Xi is willing to do for his Russian partner, said Janis Kluge, an expert on Russia’s economy with the German Institute for International and Security Affairs, told The Washington Post. “Russia needs a lot from China right now, and it’s in a very weak position,” he said. Putin declared on Tuesday that “practically all the parameters” of the Power of Siberia 2 deal had been agreed. But Russia has been making similar statements for years. And the deal still isn’t done. According to Konstantin Simonov, director of the National Energy Security Fund think-tank, Xi and Putin had been expected to sign the deal during their meetings this week.
