russia is selling via proxis to you and europe.
they just sell oil to china or india and then they sell it to you.
you have no way of knowing where it came from, it doesnt have a tag or anything. its oil. of course they are able to sell at a big profit. russia is one of the top oil producers in the world and anyone is buying from them. well not anyone, officially, but unofficially.
oil is up at least double from 4 years ago.
so what you guys are saying is that the war ukraine doesnt drive the prices (further) up? lol
