Lukashenko: Eat It, Kaliningrad


The Russia-Belarus tiff over oil export taxes just got interesting.
WSJ reports: “On Monday, Belarus upped the ante by threatening to interrupt electricity transfers to Russia's Kaliningrad region.”
There's a plan, stick it to Kaliningrad.

It might be a bad time to mention this Lukashenko, but threatening to flash freeze Russians in the dead of winter is probably not the best negotiating decision.

But good luck with that.

As if living in Kaliningrad didn't suck enought already...

Kaliningrad is hoping for pirates--it's their only possibility for salvation, to be kidnapped and taken to sea...
