1.The statement of a group of 39 US senators from the Republican and Democratic parties, which demanded that the US authorities block the Nord Stream-2 project, finally clarified the whole point of the British provocation provoking the poisoning of ex-colonel GRU Skripal.

2.In the letter, the senators do not hide that the implementation of this project will make the American allies and partners in Europe more vulnerable to "malicious influence and coercive policy" from the Russian side. 

The letter is addressed to the US Treasury Secretary Stephen Mnuchin and Deputy Secretary of State John Sullivan. And appeared exactly at the height of the anti-Russian hysteria of official London.

3.So, the calculations of the United States and Great Britain, which became a "Trojan horse" of the United States in the EU for a long time, hit the "Northern stream-2". The blue threads of the gas pipeline from Russia restrain Europe from sliding down under full control of Washington. In the US, the supply of Russian gas to the European continent has long been regarded as the main obstacle to "overstocking" Europe with its gas, although much more expensive than Russia's.

 

4.And here the policy of Washington is called upon to play the role of a non-economic factor in order to oust the competitor represented by Gazprom from the European gas market. And for this there is no better means than to arrange a noisy provocation with poisoning. And then everything is written on the notes: here is an appeal to the NATO allies for solidarity. Well, how: they attacked us and made a gas attack.

 5.Russia must pay for this. Than? And then the Washington senators here with the idea of blockading the construction of the second branch of the gas pipeline to Europe. The UK itself does not suffer from a shortage of gas. It also extracts it from deposits in the North Sea, and receives liquefied gas from neighboring Norway. 

6.Therefore, the "English woman" shits with all her heart, cuts off the shoulder, fires a wave of anti-Russian hysteria with new accusations, sucked from her finger. And the bill makes for the broken pots of the EU: they say, the Kremlin should be toughly punished, to take new sanctions and to hit harder - to disrupt the laying of the second gas line from Russia. 

7.While the EU solidarized in words completely with accusations of official London against Moscow.But then it does not hurry to go further. 

8.According to our information, the captains of the German business gave Merkel a firm grasp that sacrificing "Nord Stream-2" is absolutely impossible: it would hurt the German economy using cheap Russian gas. The economic growth, jobs, and popularity of the chancellor will be under threat. She was given practical advice: to make noise and support London in words, but not to touch Gazprom. While the Chancellor has heeded this advice.

9. But in Washington they understand that the second time to turn the provocation with poisoning or come up with some more cynical move will become more difficult. And so the myth of "Heavenly Hundred", where the British special service MI-6 with the help of snipers staged a slaughterhouse, is already spreading at the seams. 

10.In the meantime, Britain sacrificed the provocations that had begun to improve relations with Russia.The British press, which is read throughout the English-speaking world, curses Putin personally and Russia as a whole in a manner that fits the team. The methodology was worked out in Germany in the 1930s: if in the first years of Hitler's coming to power, anti-Semitism among the Germans was no more than among other nations, then by the time of the Second World War the extermination of Jews already seemed to most burghers to be justified. 

11.By the way, an important remark is that Israel does not have to hurry to identify itself with Britain against Russia, demanding more serious proofs than allegations against Putin.

12.London, as an "innocent victim of a chemical attack," will demand special treatment in all economic international issues. And from Europe within the framework of Breckzit, and from the United States in the framework of their unequal cooperation. Plus, all international projects in which Britain participates will be faced with the choice of "making friends" with them or with Russia. 

13.Third, the British will become voluntary "pioneers" of all anti-Russian protests in Europe, which will allow them to retain their political influence on Brussels even after the Breckzite has been completely decorated.

14.What can Russia oppose to this? 

First, preserve dignity and not slide down to insults that the British ministers allow themselves (recall that Prime Minister May asked for a "reverence" from Russia, and

the head of the Defense Ministry ordered Russia to "shut up"). 

15.Secondly, regularly remind that it is Moscow that is the victim of an unsubstantiated reservation. 

16.Thirdly, stop trying to prove something to Europe. The world is great, China has an absolutely adequate foreign policy, South America is interested in cooperation with Russia, Africa, too, does not suffer from any complexes at all.

17.European civilization is experiencing a deep, perhaps deepest since the Middle Ages crisis. The suicidal policy of receiving refugees, the state stimulation of the breakdown of the family institution, attempts to impose its destructive worldview on the whole world are all symptoms of a complete loss of the meaning of existence. 

18.It seems that the crisis hit the strongest in Britain, hence the desire to be both a member of the EU at the same time and withdraw from it, attempts to disproportionate military and economic might of foreign policy claims, and a frenzied, animal hatred for Russia, which, after the collapse of the USSR, did not skimp like Britain itself, up to medieval borders, but has the "audacity" to reborn and rigidly defend their own interests. 

19.But Britain is not only incapable of fighting against Russia. It is not even able to achieve greater isolation of Moscow more than Washington did in 2014. Macron and Merkel are ready to provide symbolic support. But neither France nor Germany will ever forget about their economic interests - no matter how heartbreaking stories the script writers of the "chemical attacks" come up with. And the German foreign minister has already stated that the "business of the Fiddlers" has not the slightest relation to the "Nord Stream-2". In the current unpredictable climate of Germany, it is important to have a permanent and reliable source of energy directly from a reliable partner, which is Russia.

20."The Case of the Violins" confirmed that Russia is under constant attack - political, economic, cultural. China, for all its political restraint, of course, will not engage in charity. If Russia shows weakness - this weakness will be used.
