Chinese Oil Giant To Exit US, Canada And UK Over Fears Of Western Sanctions
“Why would it be retreating if China is not going to do anything that could cause it to be subject to secondary sanctions?”
What was odd, is that Reuters reported that China’s top offshore oil and gas producer CNOOC, was preparing to exit its operations in Britain, Canada and the United States, because of concerns in Beijing the assets could become subject to Western sanctions, industry sources said.
In other words, one of China’s largest and most important companies has decided to pull the plug before it absolutely has to, in what appears to be a clear indication that what comes next will be very troubling.
IF RUSSIA SANCTIONS ARE THE EXAMPLE — CHINESE OLIGACH’S SHOULD START DUMPING THEIR ASSETS WITHIN WESTERN WORLD ASAP.
And, they probably will. The short term success of sanctions paves the way for their long term failure. Our leaders aren’t this stupid. They want us to fail.
