"Skolkovo experts write that soon oil and gas production in Russia will begin to decline sharply: sanctions limited access of Russian companies to technologies for extracting hard-to-recover reserves, and there are no own technologies for such fields in Russia.

At first glance, a strange thing: oil science in Russia is more or less developed since Soviet times, machine-building plants - the sea, why not invest in the development of new technologies?.

No, no. All the money goes to the "cruise missile with a nuclear engine" and. Why? It is obvious that if the extraction falls, then there will be no money for either, or for the other. Hence, an unconditional priority should be investment in oil and gas production technology! In practice, however, everything is exactly the opposite: Russia practically does not invest in these technologies, but huge money goes to military needs, which in peacetime do not have any consumer value.

So, Russia is going to fight? And literally just about? Because if it still pulls with the war, then its entire huge military-industrial complex and the power bloc simply will not contain anything, t. already in the medium term, budget revenues will dramatically fall due to a drop in hydrocarbon production.

But it is obvious that just about now, literally this minute, she is not ready to fight. Yes, and there is no such thing in Putin's plans. It fuels information confrontation with the West to achieve its domestic political goals. To a real clash with the West, he does not strive at all. Yes, and he does not have any resources for this. The defeat of the Wagner PMC showed this with all evidence.

Then how to resolve this strange contradiction? And it's very simple: you just need to understand the true tasks instead of the Kremlin's imagined goals. So the bitter truth is that the Kremlin has no task to increase the country's defensive capability or the quality of the first strike weapon. As well as develop their own production technologies.

The inhabitants of power corridors have a task as much as possible and as soon as possible steal money. They perfectly understand that time is working against them.. And where you can steal faster and safer?.

Well, of course, it's much easier and safer to steal budget allocations from a "cruise missile with a nuclear engine": first, it will never be used in reality (simply because it does not exist); secondly, the main consumer of this product can be smuggled in old cartoon, and with the other accomplices to share the money, so that they would nod their heads and say that they saw the test of this particular rocket, "it will fall through the ground if I lie".

With production technologies this number will not work: here it is necessary that they work. Really allowed to extract oil and gas from hard-to-extract deposits. In that number and on the sea shelf, from platforms and t. That is, these streams can not be stolen.

Or it is possible, but it is not enough and risky.

That's why we made such a strange choice. And we (strangely enough) should rejoice in him. For the greed of the Kremlin thieves will very soon bring them to the Tsugunder: the extraction of oil and gas will fall, and with it all money for all will disappear. Including - and on the power unit. And then the faithful praetorians of the emperor will simply strangle him. There are many examples in world history. ", - summed up Koch.
