Britain’s BP oil giant just raised its pre-estimated cost of the Nabucco gas pipeline up to 14 billion euro. This news has virtually sealed the death bed of a unpopular pipeline that lives only in politicians minds for the reason to slap Russia in the face…
The projected pipeline is (was) to carry gas through Central Asia to the heart of Europe and bypassing Russia so that Europe can tell Russia to stick it on gas…
The Nabucco was to have been started in upcoming 2012 but this is now very questionable, as the benefits of the project are even less evident than they ever have been…
Funny how BP has just sliced the foundation out from under Nabucco. Looks like BP who has found ally and friend in Russia for the future endeavors. Has made it clear that even the supply for the pipeline is also very precarious and could be considered unavailable without Russia in the first place…
I myself think that the Nabucco will not die for years to come. I think that despise against Russia, amongst politicians in Europe will allow the Nabucco to continue to live on as does the hatred for Russia live on in so many hearts around the world…
