Pakistan suspended import of crude oil from Russia after the refining process yielded more furnace oil than petrol, making it un-economical. Cheaper Russian oil?

One year on and #Shell are still buying #RussianOil - their "pledge" is much like #RishiSunak's "5 pledges", utter lies, empty rhetoric, pie-in-the-sky and complete bollocks.

Orban navigated Hungary into a desperate dependency on Russian energy.

He then declares “victory” over the EU, whose solidarity & protection is our only chance

and brags about how HU families can sleep peacefully while a genocidal war is ripping families apart

What a disgrace.
RT @DaveKeating: 🇭🇺PM #Orban posts video to Facebook declaring victory in his battle against 🇪🇺#RussianOil embargo.

"#Hungary is exempt from the oil embar…

"Leaders are pretty mad at Viktor Orban for blocking this."

Simple solution: End national vetos in European politics!
RT @DaveKeating: BREAKING: We are close to an agreement on an 🇪🇺 ban on #RussianOil, and the aim is now to adopt this embargo at today's #EUCO summit, according to an EU official. Now added to agenda.

But we could still be in for some fireworks as Orban may hold out a veto on political agreement

What about the gas? Still further financing Putin’s war? #StandWithUkraine
RT @DaveKeating: BREAKING: 🇪🇺President @vonderleyen announcing now to the European Parliament the proposal to ban the import of all #RussianOil to the EU.

"Let's be clear: it will not be easy. We are strongly dependent on Russian oil. But we simply have to do it."

RT @DaveKeating: A quick word on why 🇪🇺 is banning #RussianOil, but not (yet) #RussianGas.

Though the EU is more dependent on 🇷🇺gas than oil, oil actually provides Putin more revenue (🛢️is 60% of Russia's export income, 🌬️ is 20%)

🛢️ban easier than 🌬️ban for 🇪🇺, harder on 🇷🇺. (🧵1/4)

RT @DaveKeating: It’s really feeling like the 🇩🇪🇦🇹 position against an 🇪🇺ban on #RussianOil is no longer tenable, and they know it.

Feeling in Brussels right now is: these two demanded drastic sacrifice in 🇵🇹🇮🇪🇬🇷🇪🇸 after mistakes were made there. 🇩🇪🇦🇹 must make sacrifices now for greater good.

Este hilo de @DaveKeating sobre los embargos fósiles a Rusia es verdaderamente interesante.
