Tako je, jedan od sustinskih problema NISa je bas taj monopol. Koji se da 'preziveti' kad dolazi od drzavne kompanije, ali nase drzave. Kad dodju ovakva vremena i situacije, onda se najbolje vidi koliko je uzasna stvar dati drzavnoj kompaniji neke druge zemlje monopol i u manje bitnom sektoru nego sto je energetika.

Oko 80%, ostatak, neke multinacionalne kompanije kao MOL, dovoze same, odnosno svoje gotove derivate.

Evo jos jednog rebusa. Ako NIS prestane da radi u punom kapacitetu kao do sada, samim tim i zaradjuje, kako ce 17k radnika da primi platu?

Vitkofa su vec 'guzili' posle Aljaske, navodno je pripremajuci taj samit i razgovarajuci sa Putinom bez prevodioca potpuno pogresno razumeo sta je Putin nudio. Ako se do to secam, on je razumeo Putina da se slaze sa tim da NATO zemlje rasporede snage po Ukrajni za odrzavanje primirja. Posle je na Aljasci 'odjavio' Trumpa na tu temu kao 2+2.

DW The German chancellor told DW that Europe cannot support elements of a contentious US plan on Ukraine. He also warned that a Thursday deadline set by Donald Trump is not realistic.

cnn Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky praised the “substantive” results from diplomatic discussions held today in Geneva, Switzerland. “Much is changing: We are working very carefully on the steps needed to end the war,” Zelensky said in a video address posted to his Telegram channel this evening. “Diplomacy has been activated, which is good,” Zelensky said. “The first priority is reliable peace, guaranteed security, respect for our people, respect for everyone who gave their lives defending Ukraine from Russian aggression.”

Vidi se da je to pisano da se kroz dijalog popusti Rusiji u tom delu sporazuma. Ali mislim da ima i daleko spornijih tacaka za Rusiju ovde. @Henry Chinaski jel objavio neki medij ovaj predlog ili je to samo nagadjanje i 'probni balon'?

bbc US Secretary of State Marco Rubio enters the room with Zelensky's right-hand man, Andriy Yermak. Rubio says they will come back in around one or two hours so he will not take questions now. But he says he wants to provide an update. "We've had probably the most productive and meaningful meeting so far in this entire process," he says.

cnn US Secretary of State Marco Rubio refused to answer a question from CNN’s Matthew Chance in Geneva earlier today, on whether the US might turn its back on Ukraine if Kyiv rejects the peace proposal. The evasion of the question is significant – refusing even to deny the suggestion implies that the nightmare scenario for Ukraine is indeed a possibility.

bbc We’ve just seen US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and US Army secretary Dan Driscoll leave the Hotel Intercontinental. Flanked by security and high-ranking members of the military, the US team were tight lipped. Questions shouted at the delegation, for a response to President Trump accusing Ukraine of ingratitude, were met with a stony silence. When the Ukraine team left the hotel after their talks with the US, they suggested things were going well. For half an hour the US delegates were up in the 18th floor negotiating room on their own. Then came the President’s all capitals message: "UKRAINE 'LEADERSHIP' HAS EXPRESSED ZERO GRATITUDE FOR OUR EFFORTS, AND EUROPE CONTINUES TO BUY OIL FROM RUSSIA." Was this the result of a call between Geneva and Washington? Either way it feels as if that faint hopeful mood has disappeared.

bbc Ukraine's allies from Europe, Canada and Japan have voiced concerns over a US plan to end the Russia-Ukraine war, saying it "will require additional work". They said in a statement the plan had elements "essential for a just and lasting peace", but cited concerns over border changes and caps on Ukraine's army. Later on Saturday, US President Donald Trump said the draft plan was not his "final offer" for Ukraine. On Sunday, security officials from Britain, France, Germany, the US and Ukraine will meet in Geneva, Switzerland.

bbc Ukraine's allies will seek to "strengthen" a US plan to end the war with Russia when they meet at the G20 summit in South Africa, UK PM Sir Keir Starmer has said. The summit begins a day after President Volodymyr Zelensky warned Ukraine faced "one of the most difficult moments in our history" over pressure to accept the plan - leaked details of which have been seen as favourable to Moscow. Zelensky held phone talks with Sir Keir and the leaders of France and Germany on Friday. Afterwards, the PM said Ukraine's "friends and partners" remained committed to securing a "lasting peace once and for all". Neither US President Donald Trump nor Russian President Vladimir Putin are attending the G20.

Razgovara danas Zelenski sa premijerima UK, Francuske i Nemacke, vidim da je Merz otkazao/odlozio put na G20 zbog razgovora sa Zelenskim. Ocigledno je Trumpov papir uzmi ili ostavi. Nije izgledalo dobro jos pre tri dana kada je Vensov ortak sa koledza bio u Kijevu na razgovore sa vojnim vrhom. Peskov kaze da jos nista zvanicno nisu dobili iz White House, a Zelenski zavrsio 'obracanje naciji' bbc Ukraine, he says, will propose "alternatives" to the plan put forward by the Trump administration. "I will present arguments, I will persuade, I will propose alternatives," Zelensky says. Recalling how he marshalled Kyiv's response to Russia's full-scale invasion in February 2022 he adds: "We did not betray Ukraine then, we will not do so now."

DW German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul told Germany's ZDF public broadcaster that he views the US-backed peace plan for the Ukraine war "a list of issues that urgently need to be discussed between Ukraine and Russia, not as a final plan." "The German position is the European position, and that means we are supporting Ukraine." "It will be Ukraine that decides which compromises it makes, just as Russia will have to make similar decisions," Wadephul added. "We are not arbiters here, but we are advocating for Ukraine, because Ukraine is defending its freedom and the freedom of Europe," he said.

A sta je totalni slom Rusije?

cnn Ukraine has identified a Russian commander it accuses of “systematic and coordinated war crimes” in Bucha, near Kyiv, where hundreds of civilians were murdered during its brief occupation by Russian troops in 2022. Yurii Vladimirovich Kim, the commander of a platoon in Russia’s 76th Air Assault Division, is accused of ordering his troops to murder civilians between March 7 and April 1 2022, according to an indictment from Ukraine’s Prosecutor General. Bucha, where the Russian retreat revealed the bodies of children and the elderly lying in the streets, has become synonymous with the brutality of Moscow’s ongoing war in Ukraine. Hundreds of civilians were found buried in mass graves, others were tortured and executed in basements. Ukraine accuses Kim, who is not in custody, of criminal responsibility in 17 killings and four instances of ill-treatment by troops under his command in Bucha. Lawyers from Global Rights Compliance, assisting Ukrainian officials in evidence gathering, said the case against Kim is founded on witness testimonies, forensics, crime scene reconstructions, identity parades, maps and open source intelligence. Kim is also accused of ordering the bodies of victims to be burned to cover up the crimes.

Ne sporim da ima ljudi, verovatno vecina u danasnjem svetu, kojima novac jeste preci od morala. Ali mislim da je vrag odneo salu i da su u EU vrlo svesni da svaki cent koji ode u Rusiju finansira potencijalno ratno razaranje upravo zemalja EU. Da, tek posle 4 godine, posle potpune kapitulacije, okupacije i Nirnberga.

Samo u 2024. USA je dala oruzje Ukrajni u vrednosti od priblizno 80 milijardi dolara. Sa Rusijom je ostala samo ta najnuznija trgovina, dok se i tu ne nadje zamena. Ukrajna je do prosle zime omogucava transport Ruskog gasa preko svoje teritorije. Ispostovala ugovor. I dosvidanja. Tek Evropa nece vise ponavljati gresku sa pomahnitalim diktatorima koji imaju suludu vojnu moc. Svet je bitno drugaciji od Februara 2022. Bez obzira na to kakvu propaganda serviraju Sputnjik i RT.

Olimpijada i sportska takmicenja sigurno, ali trgovina i te blize veze, to se nece desiti za naseg zivota. Ogroman je jaz napravljen, mada razumem sto ljudi kod nas sve to dozivljavaju kao da ce biti puj-pike ne vazi. Evropa je na tezi nacin naucila lekciju, tako da sigurno nece ponoviti gresku.

Bas me zanima na kojoj si to pumpi pricao sa polupismenim prodavcem i ponavljao ime firme deset puta? Aplikacije sada imaju sve ozbiljnije firme iz ovog sektora, a ono sto NIS i Gasprom imaju, a drugi ne je precutni monopol u maloprodaji i monopol u vidu rafinerije. Po tome jesu u prednosti u odnosu na druge. Sve ostalo je suhi prosjek, negde malo bolje, negde malo losije od konkurencije.

Nema trika da su NISove i Gaspromove pumpe ubedljivo najbolje. Pogotovo ako se gleda prosek. MOL ima trenutno najsavremenije i najlepse pumpe, iza njih su Eco i OMV. Ali niko u tom drustvu ne odskace previse. Solidni su i Petrol i Shell, a recimo u Makedoniji su Detoil pumpe neverovatne, ubedljivo najvise volim njih da obidjem. Dok je Gasprom postojao u Bugarskoj, njihove pumpe nista nisu bile bolje od konkurencije, naprotiv.

bbc An image on Wednesday showed Driscoll meeting and shaking hands with Ukrainian Defence Minister Denys Shmyhal. In a post on X afterwards, Shmyhal said: "We focused on the next steps for implementing the historic defence agreements reached by President Zelensky and President Trump". He also thanked Washington for "approving the sale of a support package for the PATRIOT air-defence system worth approximately $105m".

Ne znam kakav ti dodir imas sa NISom i njenim zaposlenima, ili sa menadzmetom, ali ono sto ja vidim na pumpama nije nikakav svemirski brod u odnosu na konkurenciju, a posebno nije 'najzdravija firma' u Srbiji. Valjda sponzorstva fudbalskim i kosarkaskim sekcijama beogradskih blizanaca nesto govore? Makar o ispumpavanju para? Ili fiktivni ugovori sa polufiktivnim agencijama preko kojih kapitalnu dobit iznose iz Srbije bez placanja poreza. Ili na isti nacin izbegavaju placanja dividende malim akcionarima. Menadzment NISa i Gasproma je mafijaska hobotnica level pro i na globalnom nivou, a ciji pipci 'dave' i mnogo dalje i mnogo opasnije od prosecne caci ekipe na celu nekog drzavnog ili paradrzavnog organa.
