Washington wants to force Greece to abandon the gas contract with Gazprom to deprive Moscow of influence on the European gas market, That the U.S. has plans to make Greece a proposal competing with the Russians, says the Creator of Forbes Kenneth Rapoza. in his vision, the Obama administration took a position of defense, reports RT. The latest strategy of the capital of the United States is to force Greece to withdraw from the contract on gas supplies with Russian " Gazprom ". Under the terms of the agreement, Greece is becoming a major transit hub for Russian gas giant within the European Union." Gazprom "after complications of relations with the Ukrainian "Naftogaz" is trying to find alternative routes for gas supplies to the EU, especially important market for Russian Federation." If Ukraine has driven a wedge between Russia and Europe, the USA its giant hammer scored this wedge even deeper, " says Kenneth Rapoza. Washington was the first who imposed the punishment on Gazprom and other Russian energy organization. "Driving a wedge "Washington" at the speed of light " persuaded 2 former satellites of the USSR - Lithuania and Poland - to build a terminal for liquefied natural gas (LNG terminals) that sometime in the future to receive from North American shale Gas. In Russia the construction of these LNG terminals considered proof energy beginning of the war of capital against the capital of Russia." Let Europe is funding all the dirty work for the restoration of the Ukrainian economy, which is what Washington wants in reality Is to get the European energy markets ", - says the Creator of the article. This week it's "clearer" when Secretary of state John Kerry made Greece " counter offer ". According to rumors, it is connected with the cancellation of the contract of Greece and Gazprom in Russia undoubtedly could be considered a politically motivated decision. Foreign Minister of Greece Nikos Kotzias, this week completed a 5-day visit to Washington, told the Associated Press that he met with Kerry, and that he's going to send a special envoy by the U.S. state Department on international energy issues Amos Hochstein in Athens with a counter offer. At the moment, because of the deal with Russia, the gas pipeline "Turkish stream" will be connected to the regional gas pipelines, thus making Greece an important transit point. For its part, Vladimir Putin gives guarantees a reduction in natural Gas prices. Review the author of the article, It reminds of the agreement between Russia and Ukraine. The kotzias was assured that the recent dialogues Greece with Gazprom were dictated by purely economic and not political considerations. In the EU the demand for natural Gas has not decreased, rather increased, says Kenneth Rapoza. Don't have the ability of the U.S. to offer Athens to Finance the construction of an LNG terminal, why do they need "Turkish stream" asked the Creator of the article. Rapoza quotes the expression of the President of Bretton Woods Research of Vladimir Signorelli, who said that, " it seems that the Obama administration is becoming increasingly materialistic ". In his vision, the Greece deal with Russia stems from the fact that the new Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras is trying to get to the Treasury billions of dollars, and now the game enters Washington, which is trying to contain Russian influence in Athens." If a particularly effective way to invest their own capital to the Russian Federation will be the conclusion of an agreement with Greece on the construction of the pipeline, why would the US not just to give capitalism quiet to work?... This is done in order to block a competitor for the supply of gas, " - said the expert." Turkish stream " gas pipeline, which will be possible each year to supply 63 billion cubic meters of gas, of which 14 will be directed to Turkey. Taking into account the participation of Greece in the transaction, the remaining Gas will go to European customers via a transit point on the Turkish-Greek border. If, of course, Washington does not want to annoy the competitors in the face of Putin and the head of "Gazprom" Miller, the Creator of the article.
