United States officials have raised concerns regarding military strikes near the Russian Black Sea port of Novorossiysk, emphasizing the site’s critical role in global energy supply chains. Novorossiysk houses the main terminal for the Caspian Pipeline Consortium, which transports Kazakh crude oil to international markets. Major American energy companies hold significant stakes in the consortium, leading Washington to urge caution to prevent disruptions to global oil markets and protect international energy infrastructure.
- Novorossiysk hosts the marine terminal for the Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC), a key transit route for oil from Kazakhstan.
- U.S. energy corporations, including Chevron and ExxonMobil, maintain substantial financial investments in the CPC pipeline operations.
- Damage to the terminal facilities risks restricting global crude oil supplies and driving up international fuel prices.
- Washington has requested restraint regarding military targets that directly impact commercial energy infrastructure in the Black Sea region.

He says Ukraine is free to do whatever it wants. He sits there and lies. What hypocrisy in his tiny eyes.
Everybody knows that it is not Ukraine attacking Russia but instead the EU and the USA. Russia will have to go Nuclear if it wants to stay a country otherwise it will incrementally break apart. The Russian hard liners know what to do, but will Putin choose this path?
What happened to let Europe deal with it
Putin will release the Epstein files unless Ukraine is reigned in.
The US should have no power over Ukraine.
The US is a disaster in Iran, so how could they could tell Ukraine how to fight a war?
Ukraine has world respect for completely changing all military tactics.
America has lost all respect for how to run a country or a war.
The west is weak russia strong 🎉🎉🎉🎉
After Russia is defeated, would you rather have a Swedish bikini team absorb it through osmosis or the stinky Chinese that reeks of oily fish 🎣?
It’s been reported that Zelenskyy said two words to Vance in response to the latter’s request to spare US companies’ profits.
The first word was lost in translation due to a bad line, but the second by all accounts was “…off!”.
The anchor is the only one saying "red lines" and "off limits" to intentionally antagonize. Useless drama.
The guest didn’t play along with the narrative 😂
Obviously tRUMp has partnered with RU. The “press” here is too weak to call him out on it.
Putin is eating lots of TAKO (Trump Always Kompromat Obvious). If Trump can help Putin with a fossil fuel cover story, that’s a win-win… for Putin.
Learning from Trump, Ukraine should exhange Chevron interests for Patriot missiles.
tRump is a ruzzian asset, duh.
Ukraine should ignore Washington's request. What's a US red line???
It’s cause Trump is a literal Russian agent and is also the current President of the country Russia hates the most, that’s why.
Looks like something Iran might think about.
Meanwhile in Donetsk, Petrivka has fallen to the Russian army as it relentlessly pushes the Ukraine battle front westward…
The Caspian Pipeline Consortium is owned by major global multinational corporations. By striking it, Zelensky is striking not at Russia, but at the interests of these corporations.
But does Washington have any cards?
Zelenski only cares bout making money for his greedy wife, how much money have they made in this war……..
Ukraine is suicidal and I respect that.
Aw great. They are winning again. 2 days ago they were losing and 1 week before that they were winning. The plot changes faster than in a typical soap serie on HBO
If Russia had embraced a liberal democratic system like Western and other free nations since the Soviet Union, Russia wouldn't be in the situation it is in today. Since the Soviet era, Russia has continued to pursue an authoritarian communist system, disregarding human rights, individual freedoms, freedom of expression, freedom of the press, and freedom of association. Russia should have become a major economic power, given its abundant natural resources, especially oil and gas. There would be no hostility toward the West; Russia would be accepted into the European Union, for example, and even NATO. Russia, along with Western countries, would collaborate in all fields, engaging in business and trade, and so on. But in reality, Russia still lags far behind other Western countries economically. In terms of gross domestic product (GDP) alone, its GDP in 2025 is projected to be only $2.1 trillion. That's incredibly small for a country of Russia's calibre. Russia's GDP should be at least equal to Germany's GDP in 2025, which is $5 trillion. Household income per capita was only around $10 thousand.
Russia is ruled by an iron-fisted dictator, with corruption and collusion rampant, orchestrated by Vladimir Putin himself and his cronies, known as oligarchs. They are the ones who are plundering the nation's wealth. Putin is among the richest men in the world. His wealth was acquired through corruption. His private palaces are scattered everywhere, and his number of luxury yachts is unknown.
Ohhh the hypocrisy and the irony! For the past 4 years the US has been complaining about the hypocrisy of Europe claiming to help Ukraine while supporting the war by buying Russian fuel. The US, and rightly so, demand that Europe wean itself off of Russian oil and ‘of course’ turn to US oil instead.
But when the war begins to hurt American interests suddenly the tables turn and Ukraine should stop hurting Russia anywhere that it might affect the US oligarchs.
Pretty soon the most valuable sort of transportation will be a bicycle within Russia.
Good analysis. Worth listening to. However, please inform the professor to stop saying "the" Ukraine. That is incorrect because it means that the country is just a territory and not a country. It drives Ukrainians wild to hear it!
The Epstein Administration's incompetence and corruption knows no bounds.
excellent video, top notch interview with a brilliant guest!
