POLITICS AND THE WORLD MARKETS IMPERATIVE

When, or if, Putin shuts down gas to Europe, he will deny publicly that it has anything to do with politics. 

It is merely a business decision made imperative by world market conditions.

And of course, under those conditions, on what ground on which do they then have to complain, playing as they must by those same world market imperative rules?

They are free, of course, to seek elsewhere, on world markets, for their gas supply, so it is hard, in that world, to simply characterize it as an act of aggression, or, heaven forbid, a military manoeuvre.
