Russia's energy empire: Putin and the rise of Gazprom | DW Documentary
1,306,187
Published 2024-02-03
How did this come about? What is Russian President Vladimir Putin's plan? The films take a look behind the scenes of the Russian gas monopoly Gazprom. They show the genesis of an empire: from the collapse of the Soviet Union to the Russian goldrush, the restrictions imposed by newly-elected President Vladimir Putin and his regime’s subsequent arrests and expropriations. The filmmakers shot the film before the start of Russia's attack on Ukraine; a project that would no longer be possible today. The material allows viewers a glimpse into the inner workings of the energy giant Gazprom.

The Germans still can't stop thinking about the cheap Russian gas and oil after they abandoned it. Germany's condition is similar to someone who is reminiscing about his ex (girlfriend) body after he broke up with her.

"For decades, Germany had an unrestricted, subsidized supply of Russian energy supplies, which boosted the country's industrial sector and overall GDP. Berlín chose to discard all of these benefits" DW...Why Berlin dId it ??? Please answer the true...
-
So the US was really adamant that Europe's cooperation and reliance on USSR/Russian gas is bad and should stop. But I'm still not sure who blew up the Nord Stream pipelines. 😂😂
-
DW please make a documentary on US dollar and it’s worldwide influence.
-
You guys should have mentioned the part where Germany is now struggling because of expensive US LNG
-
Germany is now crying because the US has reduced supply of their costly LNG. Germany should fight for their own interest not the US's.
-
EU: "It's ok, I can change him" 💀
-
Thank you very much for including English subtitles, even if it is done after a delay of 1 or 2 days.
-
Before Russia manipulated with Gas supply, now US with their LNG supply … poor EU😅
-
Hypocrisy is when you blow nord stream to stop being dependent on one nation and them start import expensive substitutes from another which In turns make you dependent on them. This my friends is European wisdom
-
So much for the sovereign decision of the European states to have economic relations with Russia. US gets to decide when the idea of sovereignty matters and when it's not.
-
A good summary & report
-
Show your farmers protest. Dw is specialized in looking into other countries matter rather than focusing on its own problems
-
Russia and Germany together could be a strong power which US never wanted them to become
-
Really informative background. Thank you
-
HAPPY SUNDAY DW documentary 😊
-
Why you DW dont make a documentary about US, British or French petrol empire?
-
Dw should make a documentary on Chevron and BP if they have bulls to do so 😊
-
Petro Dollar is biggest weapon of that kind
-
Thank you for this video!
