Since the conflict between Russia and Ukraine broke out, the United States has pulled Western countries to impose sanctions and blockades on Russia, but this is not enough. In order to isolate Russia, the United States can be said to have done everything possible. At first, it accused Russia of "massacre" Kiev The nearby town of Butcha claimed that Russia was responsible for the Butcha massacre, but later dropped the matter because there were too many doubts. But to this day, the United States still has not given up any opportunity to discredit Russia.
Soon, the United States was causing trouble in Central Asia. Some time ago, an explosion occurred in the largest oil field in Kazakhstan. The incident killed two people and injured three others. It directly paralyzed Kazakhstan’s oil supply. The explosion The cause has not been investigated clearly, but all speculation seems to point to Russia.
Before the explosion, one thing happened that requires special attention, that is, Kazakhstan decided to increase crude oil transportation to the United States and Europe and other countries to help European countries stabilize the situation. Although Kazakhstan transported energy to Europe, Kazakhstan At the same time, I contacted the Russian side and explained to the Russian side that on the one hand, I did this because I wanted to make money, and on the other hand, it was also because most of Kazakhstan’s domestic industries were participated by American and European companies, and the country still lacked some sovereignty, so it was forced to do this. Do it.
Russia also expressed its understanding of Kazakhstan’s decision. After all, Kazakhstan imports a large amount of oil from Russia every month to meet domestic needs or export it to other countries. This is equivalent to Kazakhstan reselling Russian oil. , which is tantamount to Russia supplying oil to Europe. Because of this, Russia does not object too much.
But the accident came at this time. An explosion suddenly occurred in the largest oil field in Kazakhstan. Flames shot into the sky. Many mining facilities in the oil field were burned to the ground, making it impossible to continue to output oil. The most important thing is that this oil field is the largest oil field in Kazakhstan. Due to the increase in global oil prices, Kazakhstan has also decided to increase the oil production of this oil field and is preparing to continue to expand production next year.
Moreover, the oil field is also an American industry in Kazakhstan. It is understood that the oil field has 50% of the shares of the American company. We all know that if the shareholders of a company account for half of the shares, they have almost absolute control over the company. , but now the largest oil field controlled by US stocks has exploded, and many people unconsciously speculate that it was Russia.
But in fact, Kazakhstan itself also needs to import oil from Russia and then resell it. Although Kazakhstan exports energy, it does not seize the Russian market. Moreover, Russia is currently focusing all its energy on the Russia-Ukraine conflict. For other As long as the place is stable, it does not want to cause more troubles.
On the contrary, the United States continues to stir up trouble around Russia. It not only encourages the Nordic countries to join NATO , but also supports Israel's bombing of Syria , causing friction between Japan and Russia in the Far East, and even inciting rebellions in Central Asia, There has been turmoil in Uzbekistan , and the various actions of the United States are designed to make Russia sad.
Taken together, it is impossible for Russia to set fire to its own backyard when it is busy with the war. This incident is most likely done by the United States, and then uses this incident to put the blame on Russia and damage Russia's international reputation. It can also be used to drive a wedge between Russia and Kazakhstan and create a "Russian threat" in Central Asia. There are at least two doubts pointing to the United States.
The first doubt is that the security measures in the oil field are excellent. It is not easy for anyone to do it, unless it is a "bitter trick" .
The oil field is located in northwest Kazakhstan. Since it is an important oil production facility, the security system of the oil field is extremely strict. Not only are there patrols by soldiers outside, but there is also a complete set of emergency plans inside. In the event of a fire or other leakage, Kazakhstan can react immediately to minimize losses.
In such an oil field, an explosion would actually occur. If there is infiltration by external forces, it is almost impossible. The security level of the oil field is very good, and irrelevant personnel cannot enter, even if others want to It is not easy to achieve the goal of destroying oil fields.
Not to mention the internal emergency plan, even if a fire or other accident occurs, Kazakhstan will deal with it immediately. Even if Kazakhstan does not see it, the US personnel will not let the situation escalate, but this explosion Time, not only has the cause of the explosion not been understood, but it has also caused such huge losses. Could it be that the emergency plan failed? Or is it that Kazakhstan’s management is careless? This is hard to figure out.
The second doubt is that the timing of this explosion is very unusual. It would have exploded sooner or later. It happened when Kazakhstan decided to increase oil shipments to Europe. But in fact, since the beginning of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Kazakhstan has After frequent contact with the West, it has already increased its oil exports to Europe. If Russia was dissatisfied, it should have blown it up long ago instead of waiting for Kazakhstan to make suggestions.
Moreover, in the eyes of the outside world, due to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the relationship between Russia and Europe is not good. Europe continues to impose sanctions on Russia, and Russia is also developing countermeasures. Energy is an important part of Russia's countermeasures. First, at this time, Kazakhstan's energy exports to Europe feel like causing trouble to Russia. Because of this, after the explosion at the Kazakh oil depot, everyone thought it was Russia. But in fact, if Russia wanted to blow up It has exploded a long time ago, there is no need to wait until now.
This explosion is very beneficial to the United States. The United States can use the excuse that it was Russia and then criticize Russia as a victim. But in fact, the United States does not lack this oil field. If it loses the oil field, it can alienate Russia and Kazakhstan. Guanxi, it is still worth it. It is a good investment for the United States.
In fact, we can see that behind this explosion, both Russia and Kazakhstan were victims, and the only beneficiary was the United States. There is obviously a problem here, but Russia is at the forefront of the storm after all. Isolated by Western countries due to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the United States can easily find excuses to condemn this bombing. However, the clean will self-clean, and Russia does not need to explain too much.
