Yeah well, jouranlism today is not about delivering facts and clear analysis but about creating conflicts. The entire program was built around that idea.

Good thing that Jerome ended on the note that "storage is full and there will be no shortage" and earlier said that A pipeline is like a marriage with kids which ties producers, consumers and transit countries in a 30-year relation and that "we must live together".

The other guy said something to the effect that Ukraine has only been an independent country for 17 years and that makes it hard to deal with it (WTF is that for an argument???).
