Russia insists on transiting Mongolia for gas supply, and it doesn't hurt that China's hard gas response project fails
Previously, after the suspension of the energy agreement between Russia and Europe, the two countries insisted on their own words, one wanted to buy but could not, and the other wanted to sell but could not.
So Europe buys the United States, and Russia buys our gas.
China's gas project agreement in the Far East will provide it with 50 billion cubic meters of natural gas per year**, according to Globo***. This is beneficial to both China and Russia, but it is surprising that Russia, after a pleasant cooperation, has made other requests.
Russia said,"Far Eastern project"It should pass through Mongolia, but the Chinese side said: never!
Although Mongolia only borders China and Russia, China has helped Mongolia a lot in its development. China not only helps Mongolia develop natural resources, such as mineral resources, but also helps Mongolia build infrastructure such as roads. However, Mongolia does not remember us at all.
Some time ago, we imposed restrictions on rare earth exports, and the United States and Western countries are highly dependent on China's rare earth exports, which worries them. At that time, Mongolia not only took the initiative to sign agreements with the United States and South Korea to mine rare earths, but also opened its airspace to the United States.
If the gas pipeline passes through Mongolia, the likelihood of an accident will be greatly increased, which is indeed unacceptable.
And even if we don't buy gas from Russia, we have it in our hands"cards"Enough too. After all, if Russia does not purchase gas from the EU and only supplies it to China, then it will be difficult to get a large contract.
The big natural gas companies in the Middle East also want to work with us, ** reported that before 2022, we signed a gas and oil cooperation agreement of up to 30 billion yuan with the Middle East, so we don't need to worry about the shortage of natural gas**.
At the same time, we have also begun to accelerate the construction of clean energy chains, such as wind and photovoltaics, to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels. As can be seen from the current reports, we have made great progress not only in electric vehicles, but also in new energy technologies.
At present, China's solar panel manufacturing technology has reached the international advanced level, and related technologies and industrial chains are developing rapidly, which can effectively reduce the demand for fossil energy.
The focus is on the manufacturing technology of photogenerated cells, and we also use photogenerated voltaics"Lock neck"technology, restricting the export of photovoltaic related technologies has made it difficult for India, the United States, the West and other countries.
In terms of energy, we must walk on "two legs": one is to import some fossil fuels from "natural gas giants" such as Russia and the Middle East; On the other hand, China has also increased the research and development of clean energy. That is why we were able to throw off the "yoke" of Russia.
Actually, it is more beneficial for us to cooperate with Russia, but there is one condition, and that is that we must cooperate with sincerity. After all, we've had similar experiences.
Before that, Russia suddenly changed its mind and put it"Anna Line"The transfer to Japan, South Korea, and the agreement between China and Russia at that time had a significant impact on us.
With this experience, Russia wants to facilitate"Far Eastern Plan"If you have to go through Mongolia, it will definitely be insincere, and the best way to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past is not to cooperate from the beginning.
After all, when it comes to energy, we're in"Eggs are placed in multiple baskets", not only do there are many partners, but there are also clean energy sources that Russia does not know how to solve this problem. As many experts say, cooperation is mutually beneficial, but it is not necessary.
Now it seems that we have enough confidence to deal with this.
If you agree, please give a thumbs up and at any time**, comment, share.
