Juncker sees no "argument" for lifting anti-Russian sanctions

European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker says he sees no argument for lifting sanctions against Russia, according to Euronews.

"Up until now, I have seen no argument for the sanctions against Russia being immediately lifted," Juncker said in an interview with Euronews. "I would like to have an agreement with Russia that goes beyond the ordinary framework, bearing in mind that without Russia, there is no security architecture in Europe," he said adding that President Obama's assessment of Russia as "a regional power" was, in his opinion, "a big error." When asked whether European leaders would maintain sanctions against Moscow given that Donald Trump would come to power in a few months, Juncker said the EU was not dependent on U.S. foreign policy. "The U.S. will do what it wants to do and Europeans will have their own interests within their own scope to manage," he said......

Russia is ready to surrender hybrid - Piontkovsky

In the looming split of elites Putin regime

Modes of authoritarian states fall like Stalin in his time, not because of a mass uprising and split by elites or elite conspiracy. In Russia, things are moving that way.

This was in an interview with "Commander" said the Russian politician, a refugee who left Russia, Andrei Piontkovsky.

"I'm not saying that Putin will clean tomorrow and do change the model of the Russian authorities. But the need to change this personal brand is quite obvious. Yes, Air hopes to retain power, Putin gives election Trump. But more illusions ... Republican establishment will keep Trump in sufficiently clear framework. Those who claim now to the appointment secretary of state, is a staunch opponent of the Putin regime,"- he said.

Piontkovsky said the latest scandalous events in Russia: the arrest of former Minister of Economic Development Alexei Ulyukayev, the murder of Boris Nemtsov, the conflict between the FSB and Ramzan Kadyrov.

"That is the measure. This discontent security forces, which, interestingly, is shared by the majority population. This refers to the increasing power of Kadyrov, which all unhappy. I also agree with this discontent ... Take as examples arrests security forces in the Investigation Committee, the disappearance from the political scene of a number of persons are inviolable, the people of the inner circle of Putin. It is about Vladimir Yakunin, Sergei Ivanov, head of Customs (former head of the Federal Customs Service of Russia Andrei Belyaninov, who in the summer of 2016 security forces during a search found nearly a million dollars. - "Glaucus"). I was a teenager then, but very well remember the winter of 1952-1953 years, the last months of Stalin's life. The same atmosphere now: fighting clans, etc", - said the analyst.

He expressed confidence that the Russian delegation traveling to Washington is not accidental.

"They all think of hybrid surrender. Everyone who is interested in negotiations and the West, I advise you to read an interview with Michael McFaul (US Ambassador in Russia 2012 - 2014) the newspaper "Kommersant" on the day of US presidential election on Nov. 8. He says there being absolutely certain that Clinton will win and it will be a great official. There he provides answers to urgent questions. Like you (Russians - "Glaucus") go from Donbas, Crimea is still yours. But to no tricks to go with Donbass completely. This event is agreed. In the interview is very interesting phrase, they say, we would hate to bring to a publication we all know the personal data of all members of the Russian leadership ... So, continuing serious negotiations about the terms of surrender, surrender of a hybrid, "- said Piontkovsky.

François Fillon: now the favourite to be France's next president

The Republican candidate will face a strong challenge from Marine Le Pen

If conventional wisdom is right, François Fillon's thumping victory in France's centre-right presidential primaries on Sunday as good as hands him the keys to the Elysée Palace. But conventional wisdom was turned upside down in the UK’s referendum on EU membership and the US presidential election. Mr Fillon is the favourite now, but there is nothing inevitable about his path to the presidency.

If he is to achieve his ambition, two premises must hold. First, he and Marine Le Pen, leader of the far-right National Front party, must be the two candidates who make it through the first round of elections on April 23 to square off against each other in the May 7 run-off. Second, there is a mass of French voters who will then rally behind Mr Fillon — many on the left and in the centre doubtless holding their noses — to keep out Ms Le Pen. This happened in 2002 when Jean-Marie Le Pen, her father, lost by an overwhelming 82-18 per cent margin to Jacques Chirac. Like Mr Fillon, Mr Chirac was the standard-bearer of the mainstream right.

.The first round will be a crowded field and it seems likely that Ms Le Pen, backed by a rock-solid National Front vote of 25-30 per cent, will easily make it into the run-off. But if Mr Fillon campaigns poorly, he could be shunted out by the ruling Socialist party's candidate — or even, though this is a long shot, by Emmanuel Macron, the former economy minister who is running as a reform-minded independent........................

Russia spent $5B trying to block gas reversal to Ukraine, - Naftohaz official

Russian Gazprom attempted blocking import of European gas to Ukraine and spent $5 billion on facilitating these attempts, Russian media report.

This was announced by commercial director of Naftohaz of Ukraine National Joint Stock Company Yurii Vitrenko, Censor.NET reports citing LIGA.

"We purchase gas from the largest European gas companies. Many of them extract gas on their own. Many buy gas from other extracting companies, including Gazprom, which prevented us from buying gas in Europe.

"According to information by Russian newspapers, Gazprom spent $5 billion on its failed attempts to block our gas import from Europe. We are grateful to companies that weren't afraid to undermine their relations with Gazprom and started selling us gas," Vitrenko said.

The Naftohaz director also said market price for gas from Europe was lower than contract prices from Gazprom in most of the months this year. On Nov. 25 Naftohaz announced it was ready to purchase gas from Russia under conditions in previous 'winter packages.'

On Nov. 25 Ukraine marked exactly one year of not buying gas from the aggressor state, Russia. Russian gas only flows through Ukraine on its transit to Europe.
