‘Trump Administration Asserts Ambition To Dominate Energy Sector’
The U.S. is trying to dominate the control global energy sector and to control the routes through which energy is delivered to global customer.
That accusation is made by Russia’s Foreign Minister Lavrov in an interview to the TV BRICS media network. The interview also touches on other aspects. The excerpts from the interview posted below are only the ones which regard to energy issues (emphasis added):
Multiple centres of rapid economic growth, power, and financial and political influence have thus emerged. The world is being reshaped through competition. The West is reluctant to relinquish its formerly dominant positions.
Moreover, with the arrival of the Trump administration, this struggle to constrain competitors has become particularly obvious and explicit. Indeed, the Trump administration openly asserts its ambition to dominate in the energy sector and harness their competitors.
Blatantly unfair methods are being used against us: the operations of Russian oil companies such as Lukoil and Rosneft are being banned, and there are attempts to dictate and restrict Russia’s trade, investment cooperation, and military-technical ties with our major strategic partners, including India as well as other BRICS states.
…
All of these geopolitical confrontations, along with the attempts to derail the objective course of history, inevitably affect bilateral relations. I am not going to mention them all; those include sanctions, the so-called “shadow fleet” invented by the West, attempts to detain vessels by military force in the open sea in blatant violation of the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea, and much more. Tariffs imposed for purchasing oil or gas from certain suppliers have now become commonplace.
…
They tell us that the Ukraine problem should be resolved. In Anchorage, we accepted the US proposal. If we regard it “as men,” it means that they proposed it and we agreed, so the problem must be resolved. …
So far, the reality is quite the opposite: new sanctions are imposed, a ‘war’ against tankers in the open sea is being waged in violation of the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea. They are trying to ban India and our other partners from buying cheap, affordable Russian energy resources (Europe has long been banned) and are forcing them to buy US LNG at exorbitant prices. This means that the Americans have set themselves the task of achieving economic domination.
Furthermore, while they ostensibly made a proposal regarding Ukraine and we were ready to accept it (now they are not), we do not see any bright future in the economic sphere either. The Americans want to take control of all the routes for providing the world’s leading countries and all continents with energy resources. On the European continent, they are eyeing the Nord Streams, which were blown up three years ago, the Ukrainian gas transportation system and the TurkStream.
This illustrates that the US objective – to dominate the world economy – is being realised using a fairly large number of coercive measures that are incompatible with fair competition. Tariffs, sanctions, direct prohibitions, forbidding some from engaging with others – we have to take all of this into account.
A NY Times piece published today on Trump’s oil grab in Venezuela makes, in part, a similar point (archived):
In China, a foreign ministry spokeswoman said last month that Mr. Trump was “bullying” Venezuela to give up its oil. Spain joined with five Latin American countries, including Mexico and Brazil, in denouncing “the external appropriation” of Venezuela’s natural resources as illegal.
Mr. Trump has sought to turn the tables, charging that Venezuela “took our oil away from us” and “stole our assets” in 2007 when it increased state control over its oil industry and forced two of the three U.S. companies operating in the country to abandon their projects at considerable expense.
Whether that is Mr. Trump’s true motivation is unclear. He has asserted a U.S. right to “take the oil” from other countries, from Iraq to Syria to Libya, although he has not previously done so.
That is a sharp break from decades of precedent, …
A high gambit strategy to control global energy does not fall from the sky:
- Where is the policy paper that has laid out the plans for doing this?
- Who has written it?
- Who is the point person in the White House that is driving this strategy?
Please point to answers for these questions.
The Anglo-USAmerican oligarchy, and their de facto fascist regime as a base for a genocidal empire:
1- Wall Street oligarchs in general. This includes the:
1.1- owners of the energy companies;
1.2- silicom valley and all their “social” media, hardware and software;
1.3- military industrial complex;
1.4- and of course the MainStreamMedia aka global propaganda/Fake News machine.
2- Zionist lobby in particular, be they:
2.1- lunatic jews who still think they are “the chosen people”;
2.2- completely lunatic evangalicals who think the Old Testament is the most important “factual” piece of paper on Earth;
2.3- atheists and suni muslims that go along with zionism, because that’s good for their careers and countries respectively.
EVERYTHING that the Anglo-USAmerican fascist regime and genocidl empire does, everyt aggression/terrorism committed by CIA, Mi6, Pentagon/NATO, Mossad, and their minions (from Seul to Ankara, from Buenos Aires to Helsinki, from Amman to Tokyo, from Brussels to Abuja, etc), EVERYTHING is done for the benefit of the group of fascist beats and genocidal lunatics in points 1 and 2.
That being said, there’s only one solution: a revolution in USA that overthrows.this assassin regime and replaces it with a decent peaceful NON-zionist non-fascist PEOPLE’S democracy.
That means either a Social-Democracy as the neutral Nordics (Sweden and Finland) used to be after WW2 and before the EEC/EU, or something like we have in China, or something in between.
The other solution totally depends on a naturally occuring event, that is very unlikely, to happen soon: a meteor destruction event even greater than the Tunguska one, that strike on Washington DC, and erases everything in a few hundres of miles radius, and also destroys stuff from Texas to Vermont, from LA to Miami.
If that happened, I would start believing that there is a good entity that can be called God.
But that won’t happen.
The nazi-fascist corrupt terrorist genocidal colonial/zionist empire of the Anglo-USAmerican lunatics (what those lunatics and brainwashed sheep call “democracy”) will keep spreading chaos and destruction and suffering and mass casualties (already near 30 million, which is comparable to nazi germany) all over the world for a few more decades.
All that Russia and China and their friends can do, is to protect themselves and hope for the best: to survive intact while the empire does its evil on its way to inevitable collapse, and change of religion. Because that’s one of the LAWS of human history: all empires collapse, and all religions change, sooner or later.
So, perhaps in 2100 or 2200, mankind will be living in a much better world, where there isn’t anything called “usa” nor “israel”. And also sooner or later there won’t be anything called “zionists” nor “evangelicals”.
Those will be just 4 sad/disgusting things for a few historians to remember, in the same way they do today towards nazi Germany and french Indochina, or zoroastrism and Levantine/Canaanite polytheism.
We, observing this, are just like those humans in Europe and North Africa that had to endure while the Roman Empire was committing aggression, without knowing when all that sh*t would end, nor knowing how special and great the year 476 CE would be…
So, that’s my wish: I hope the Anglo-USAmerican Zionist/Evangelical disgusting genocidal empire meets its own year 476 as soon as possible.
Because I’m a decent human and I want better world.

Yesterday, b, you came out with quotations from Lavrov and from the NYT, both guns blazing, and you asked:
A high gambit strategy to control global energy does not fall from the sky:
- Where is the policy paper that has laid out the plans for doing this?
- Who has written it?
- Who is the point person in the White House that is driving this strategy?
Please point to answers for these questions.

I don’t have answers for these questions, but I will try to stay on point, that being b’s repeated request as posted above.
On point: The frame of your question takes me first of all to part (d) of the section of Dostoievski’s work The Brothers Karamazov, which section is entitled From the life of the Elder Zosima. Part (d) is titled The Mysterious Visitor.
Bear with me:
‘ “Where is the truth here? And will people know this truth, will they appreciate it, will they respect it?”
“Lord!” I thought to myself, “he thinks about people’s respect at such a moment!”
And I felt so much pity for him then that I believe I would have shared his lot if it would have made it easier for him …
Then I took the Gospel from the table, the Russian translation, and showed him John, chapter 12, verse 24 … ‘
‘ … “True,” he said, and smiled bitterly. “Yes, in these books,” he said after a pause, “one finds all sorts of terrible things. It is easy to shove them undersomeone’s noxe. Who wrote them, were they human beings? “
“The Holy Spirit wrote them,” I said.
“It’s easy for you to babble,” he smiled again, but this time almost hatefully. I again took the book, opened it to a different place, and showed him the Epistle to the Hebrews, chapter 10, verse 31. He read: “It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.”
He read it and threw the book aside … ‘
[Pevear and Volokhonsky translation]
End of story, but not quite. Many huge thanks here, b. And apologies to those who think I am pointing in the wrong direction. This is simply what b’s questions in his very important post reminded me of.
(Further apologies if my spacing has not been adequate.)
